Sir Edward Chichester. Go outside England--go to America, and ask
what is thought of him there. We know that the opinion is very high.
I believe if the American Navy were at war, and found Sir Edward
Chichester on the high seas without an escort, they would kidnap him,
and place him at the head of the American Navy. Many American stories
are told about Sir Edward. They are perhaps not all true. But if not
all true, I think they are well conceived. There is one I have heard
about an admiral who greatly admired Sir Edward, and greatly admired
England. The admiral bought a lion cub, and wishing always to have
the type of Britain before him, he called it _Chichester_. Sir Edward
Chichester, I dare say to his sorrow, was never a combatant officer in
this war, but his heart was with his gallant comrades who arrived so
opportunely at Ladysmith.”
Some remarkable coincidences were noted on the occasion of the death of
Admiral Chichester.
His flagship, the sloop _Cormorant_, was formally paid off on the date
of his death, and recommissioned for similar service under Rear-Admiral
J. G. C. Goodrich, who left Plymouth for Gibraltar to take up his
appointment. In accord with an arrangement made some weeks before, the
battleship _Formidable_ was directed to call at Gibraltar and embark
the paid-off men of the _Cormorant_ for passage home. The _Formidable_
on reaching Gibraltar received the news of Sir Edward’s death, and was
at once ordered to arrange for the body to be received on board, so
that the late admiral and the crew of his flagship came home in the
same vessel--a vessel which was also bound to her paying-off port. The
paying-off of a flagship on the same day as that on which the death
took place of the admiral whose flag she bore was probably unique in
the annals of the British Navy. It was also a noteworthy circumstance
that Rear-Admiral Goodrich, who in the ordinary way would have
succeeded Admiral Chichester early in the ensuing month, left Plymouth
Sound on the very same day as that on which the body of his predecessor
arrived at that port from Gibraltar.
The speech of Captain Chichester to the German admiral--“That is a
matter known only to Dewey and me”--may be seen inscribed in the
Naval School in Annapolis, U.S.A., where it embellishes one of the
walls of the academy. It may be noted that Annapolis is one of the
most British towns in the United States, in the style of its streets
and architecture generally, and there is surely no English name
more beloved in the American Navy than that of bluff old Admiral
Chichester.
