4.32k | MONITOR TERROR (M-4), WHICH HOLDS THE PRIZE RECORD UP TO DATE. The monitor Terror holds the record up to date for having captured the most valuable prizes of the war, the Spanish steamer Ambrose Bolivar. Besides value of the ship was $60,000 in hard specie aboard, which goes into the bargain. Then on the same day the Terror nipped the big Spanish steamer Guldo, which is worth about $400.000. There will be at pretty penny for the sailors of the Terror when the division of spoils comes around. Uncle Sam's champion prize winner is all that her name implies. She is the type of a ship that many American navy officers contend is the most serviceable afloat. The Terror is a great floating fort of hideous men, when the tremendous power of her great muzzles is borne in mind. She is a double-turreted monitor, heavily protected with Harveyized nickel steel. Her displacement is very nearly 4000 tons, but she is armed out of all proportion to her weight. In her strong turrets she carries four 10-inch and eight smaller guns, which can fight at any angle. She has a complement of 200 men. |
