To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" In the evening I sent for all the captains to come on board the Bon Homme Richard, to consult on future plans of operations. Captains Cottineau and Ricot obeyed me ; but Captain Landais obsti- nately refused, and after sending me various uncivil messages, wrote me a very extraordinary letter, in answer to a written order which I had sent him on finding that he had trifled with my verbal orders." Three of the officers of the other ships, gallant officers and courteous gentlemen, Messrs. Mease,... Cottineau, and Chamillard, went on board the Alli- ance to endeavor to persuade Landais not to pursue a course so ruinous to the efficiency of the expedi- tion. The angry man would not listen to the voice of reason. He spoke of Captain Jones in the most contemptuous and insulting terms. He even went so far as to say : ^ CRUISE OF THE BON HOMME RICHARD. II9 " I will soon meet Captain Jones on shore.
Then I will either kill him or he shall kill me." On the afternoon of the 5th of September, a storm arose.
