The second point was whether in writing his account of the battle of Lake Erie, Cooper had faithfully fulfilled his obligations as an historian. The majority of the referees decided that he had so done. Mr. This was that the narrative gave the impression that Elliott's conduct in the battle had met with universal approbation, which it had not.
None were burned, the actual fire being confined to the neighboring buildings of the block in the midst of which the library was unfortunately located. The whole number of volumes damaged was about 55,000, and the insurance, which was assessed by referees at the amount of $42,000, would nearly have replaced the books by new ones.
As with the first two tricks, so Curtis did with the following five he explained them, and then, aided by Hamar and Kelson, gave practical demonstrations of their solutions; and so thoroughly and clearly were these solutions demonstrated that the referees asked no questions they were absolutely satisfied. Turning to the audience at a sign from Curtis they announced that the whole of Messrs.
"In answer I declined these men for referees on two grounds, viz., that I had lodged an appeal with a higher jurisdiction than theirs, and that they were confederates of the criminal; and to enforce the latter objection I included your proposed referees in my charges, and once more demanded of you in the queen's name an examination of her unworthy servants on the instant and on the spot.
