Harry Hudson, landsman, said at the light looked red to him. | Joseph Harder, ordinary seaman, stated that | he was on the ‘lookout on the cat-bead at 2 o'clock on the morning of the 10th, and he sighted a red light about three points on the starboard bow. This is the man who sang out |to the oficer of the deck that there was a “light ho.” 7 ‘The court was then cleared for consultation and when it was reopened the judge advocate announced that be another batch of men | belonging to the Despatch and would like to | swear them all and read to them the report of | might affirm or disprove it. 1 ANOTHER BATCH OF MEN. | They were called into the room and ranged in line as follows: W.

It was in sight for several hours and every one on deck saw the light as ja red flash, and it was taken for | Curratuck light, which is red. When the ship ‘reached Hampton Roads it was learned that it was a well-known local fact that under cer- | tain circumstances the Charles light al- wavs showed ax a red flash light. | ,bnsign A. P.
