Native of Tennessee. Born in Nashville, Tenn., January 1, 1858, Admiral Gleaves embarked upon & distinguished naval career, entering the Naval Academy in 1873, gr- uating at the age of 19 years; bec.ming an expert in ordnance and torpedoes and commanding the first modern American torpedo boat, the U. S. S. Cushing. Shortly before the World War, he commanded the De- stroyer Force of the Atlantic Fleet and he is credited with having this outfit in such excellent shape that destroyers were sent abroad, almost immediately after the entry of the United States into the World War. “The organization and resourceful- ness of Admiral Gleaves and his sub- ordinates has rightly been construed as one of the chief contributory fac- tors to insuring the safe transporta- tion of our troops to France during the World War,” said the Navy De- partment yesterday, in recalling the Admiral's distinguished service, that ended in his retirement on January 1, 1922, at the age of 64 years. From | & 1928 to 1931, he served as governor | of the U. 8. Naval Home at Phila- delphia. Admiral Gleaves was commissioned an admiral on the retired list in 1930. He held the Distinguished Service | Medals from both Navy and Army for his war duty. Czechoslovakia, China, Japan and France likewise | decorated him for his war service. | Latterly, he made his home in Haver- ford. Man Dies Suddenly. E. A.
