In Torrington's case the substantive law continued to be what it had always been.
"Hit first and hit hardest." An electric bell swizzed. "He's there." "Failed," grunted Cassis. But Mr. Torrington's eyes were on the clock. "Since he is five minutes ahead of time I imagine he has succeeded." Doran came in. "Mr. Cranbourne, sir." "Alone?"
This is as much as to say that a sure point of temporary retreat is necessary to "a fleet in being," and this was an essential part of Torrington's idea. Delarbre, Tourville et la marine de son temps, p. 339.
