Catesby Jones thought he had Digitized by Google Drapbb] the monitor AND THE MERRIMACK. 391 silenced her, and that he might make another attempt on the Minnesota. He, however, changed his course as the Monitor steamed up, and it was seen that the Merrimack was sagging down at her stern. She made the best of her way to Craney Island. The battle was over; the turreted Monitor had driven her from the field and won the victory.
The Minnesota had fired two hundred and forty-seven solid shot, two hun...dred and eighty-two shells, and more than ten tons of powder. The Monitor fired forty-one shot, and was struck twenty-two times. The last shell fired by the Merrimack at her struck her pilot-house opposite the peep-hole, through which Worden at that moment was looking. He was knocked down senseless and blinded by the explosion. When consciousness re- turned, the first question this brave officer asked was, "Did we save the Minnesota?" The shattering of the pilot-house was the greatest in- jury that the Monitor received.
