On the 22nd, the admiral, at break of day, gave orders that the ships which had been appointed to cannonade the town, under the command of Rear-Admiral Byng and Rear-Admiral Vanderdosen, as also those which were to batter the South Mole Head, commanded by Captain Hicks of the "Weymouth," should arrange themselves accordingly.
Norris West struggled into a sitting position, and looked about him with haggard eyes. "The Chinamen! The Chinamen!" he muttered. He sprang to his feet, glaring wildly at Smith and me, reeled, and almost fell. "It is all right," I said, supporting him. "I'm a doctor. You have been unwell." "Have the police come?" he burst out.
