During this period the officers and men still remaining on board gave no sign of their presence, Captain Campbell, by his example, imbuing this remnant of his splendid ship's company with his own indomitable spirit of endurance.

The submarine submerged again soon afterwards, and as she passed the ship Captain Campbell from his submerged tube fired a torpedo at her, which just missed.

Probably the range was too short to allow the torpedo to gain its correct depth.

She went right round the ship, and a second torpedo was fired from the other tube, which again missed.

This torpedo was evidently seen from the submarine, as she submerged at once.
