Against us were pitted seven cruisers, five gun boats, two torpedo boats ; fifty-two classified big guns; eighty -three rapid firers and machine guns, and one thousand nine hundred and forty- eight men.
It cannot be denied that we had a greater number of heavy guns and that our ships were of modern construction, nor must it be overlooked that the Spanish fleet was much more numerous and that it had the immense assistance of pro tecting ports manned with strong garrisons and mounting an unknown ...number of guns, of whose caliber and force we had been told most terrify ing things.
46 With Dewey at Manila.
CHAPTER IV.
THE FIRST BOUND.
IT was with barely steerage way that, with the United States flag flying at all our mastheads, with drums beating to quarters, and having sailed some seventeen miles up the bay, our fleet, as soon as it had sighted the Spaniards, passed in a broad curve to the east side of the bay. Then, with the Olympia leading, we curved around the Manila water front ; again turned and headed for a sailing line exactly parallel to the line of Mon- tojo s fleet.
