The first part of this is also true ; but the author was no doubt ignorant that the officer was a prisoner who had been captured at Donelson, and had fought the boat, and was acquainted from inspection of all her weak points before, and it was to remove his impressions of her weakness, that he was asked if he would like to look at her. The officer had learned that the Mound City had been blown up by plunging shot, and his inspection taught him that this vessel was proof against a similar catast...rophe.
" By way of episode, I will state that on the completion of these boats, my attention was directed to remedying some of their many defects, in the most practicable manner, but my absence at home from a hurt received, prevented the con summation of this object. I had however before leaving, informed poor Kilty of the manner I had intended to protect the boilers, begging him to adopt the same method. His reply was, he would gladly adopt it, but it could not be done ; he was wrong, and from the blowing up of the Mound City, has to mourn this day his error.
