Capt. Geo. R. Wilbur delivered an ad

stitution has played In the American
navy. Capt. Wilbur Tuesday morning
delivered an address at an assembly of
the high school.
Capt. Wilbur, during the course of
his talk read portions of an address
written on “Old Ironsides” by Rash L.
Holland, of the National Memorial
Headquarters Commission of Elks. It
follows:
“I will tell yon Just a little about
’Old Ironsides’ snd about the first of
the many ses fights In which it was
engaged. It was built out of the very
best snd strongest timber, and de
signed to carry a large amount of can
vas or sail so as to give it great speed,
this always being Important In naval
warfare. The use of oars on frigates
hsd been discontinued long before ’Old
Ironsides’ was built She is what 1s
known as a 1,800-ton ship and carried
4-1 cannon, firing eunnon-balls weighing
24 to 32 pounds each. In comparison
with our preeent fighting vessels, the
eponon she carried as compared with
the monsters mounted on our present
great battleship« seem almost like pop
guns. The fighting capacity of our
modern war vessels is 300 times great,
er than the fighting capacity of this*
old ship when it was brand new and
fully equipped; that Is to say, one of
the big atilpe of our present navy
could fight and sink 300 ships like ‘Old
Ironsides’ when she was st her very
best.
“She was commanded by Captain
Isaac Hall, who was a great sailor as
well as a great commander and fighter.
She carried about 400 officers and men.
but they were all men of iron will and
Iron courage, and proved themselves
to be'the best sailors snd fighters In
the world. When you come to rand
the history of ‘Old Ironsides,’ you Will
learn that the first important fight in
which she was engaged occurred in
August, 1812. Off the coast of New
foundland she came upon a British
frigate named 'Guerrlere.' The ‘Guer-
riere’ was one of the best ships of the
British navy and was about the sloe
of ‘Old Ironsides* and was similarly
equipped with cannon, officers and
men. ‘Old Ironsides’ gave battle at
owe to the ‘Guerrlere,’ and it proved
to be a great fight. The sea was very
rough and the ships were hard to man
age, but Captain Hull proved to be a
better seaman than the <-ommander of
the British frigate. Each ship tried to
sink the other b.v firing cannon shot
into it Finally the ships came to
gether. Then the waves drew them
apart and there was more cannonading
on both sides, but finally the cannons
on “Old Ironrides’ shot away the masts
on the ‘Gnerriere,’ so that she was
practically helpless. ‘Old Ironsides’
then bore down on her, and the Com
mander of the ’Guerrlere’ was com
pelled to surrender. The British frig
ate had been so shot to pieces that It
really wds not -worth towing into har
bor.. Consequently, after the British
sailors who had not been killed had
been brought on tn ‘Old Ironsides,’ the
‘Guerrlere’ was set on fire and bloom
up at sea.
“You perhaps are wondering how
the frigate ‘Constitution’ got the name
of ’Old Ironsides.’^ Let me tell you.
