JUNE 12— THE MUTINY AT
THE NORE
1 3 1 On the 12th June 1797
YEARS the great revolt among
A G 0 the seamen of the Bri-
Navy known as the
Mutiny at the Nom came to an end,
when the last of the rebellious crews'
decided to make an unconditional
surrender.
For many years the seamen of the
Royal Navy had complained with
good reason regarding the harsh con-
ditions of their service, but their
very just demands for adequate pay
and better food had been ignored by
the Government, and in the month
of May 1797 their patience was ex-
hausted and they determined to take
action.
The Government. learning that a
mutiny had been planned by the
crews of the ships stationed at Spit -
head, ordered the fleet to proceed
out to sea, so as to prevent any con-
certed action by the men an the var-
ious ships. The nen, however, re-
fused to raise the anchors or unfurl
the sails until their clmands had been
complied with, and they placed all
their officers under arrest, but other-
wise they maintained an admirable
discipline, As the whole -hearted
sympathy of the general public was
with the mutineers the Government
was compelled to come to terms, and
on th 15th of May, Admiral Howe
was authorized to announce that
most of the demands made by the
men would be met, and the crews
returned to duty.
Five days later trouble broke out
in the fleet stationed at the Nom at
the mouth of the River Thames, end
this proved to be a much more ser-
ious affair, for it was not so much
a demand for the redress of real
grievances as an attempt to repub-
licanize the fleet. The men at the
Nero shared all the advantages of
the coneessions made by the Gov•rn-r
merit, and the demands which were
made by their leader, Richard Part
kers a man of some education and
ability. were most unreasonable and
impossible to comply with.
The red flag was raised on twenty
six ships, which the mutineers drewi
up in lute across the mouth of the
River Thames and thus cut off all
river traffic between London and the,
sea. The Government, supported by
public opinion, took prompt meas=
ures to cope with the mutiny. The
buoys at the entrance to the river
were removed to prevent the rebels
from carrying out their threat of
joining the French fleet, batteries
were stationed on the shore to fire
red-hot shot at the ships if they at-
tempted to sail out to sea, and a pro-
clamation was issued which declared
the fleet to be in a state of rebellion.
and prohibiting intercourse with it.
Dissension soon broke in severall
ships, and one by one the crews sur-
roundered to the authorities as they
realized the hopeless nature of their
revolt. At last H.M.S. "Sandwich"
which was the headquarters of Par- ,
ker .and the ring -leaders, was pract-
ically the only rebel ship left and on i
the 1.2th June its crew" held n meet-
ing at which it was decided to place '
their leaders under restraint and a-
bandon the struggle. This was ac-
corclingly done, and on the following
day the ship was saild under the
guns of the fort at Sheerness and
Parker was handed over to the au- I
thorities.
Parker and five other men were
tried by court-martial and hanged at
the yard -arm, but a general pardon I
was granted to all the misguided
seamen who, a few months later, a-
tl•ievcd their reputations by the great
gallantry which they displayed at the

Premier King's Work
AN EDITORIAL IN THE OTTAWA CITIZEN
IT IS particularly difficult to attack
g the Canadian Prime Minister on
the fruits of the last Imperial Con-
ference. The resolutions on imper-
ial relations, based on the report of a
committee presided over by Lord
Balfour, were unanimously affirmed.
While they are of very real interest
to Canada, it is generally known
that they were drafted more parti-
cularly to meet the urgent needs of
South Africa and the Irish Free

fullest extent of the services of Mr.
Fang, the presence of whose col-
league at the conference, Mr. Ernest
Lapointe, left no doubt that the
Prime Minister could speak for a

THIRD DEATH AS RESULT OF�-
EXPLOSION NEAR WINGHAM
Infant Daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Percy Jarvis Succumbs in
Hospital.
, Wingham, June 8 — The third
death resulting from the explosion
and fire at the home of A. Finlay,
of Turnberry Township, near Wing-
' ham, on Wednesday night, occurred
just before noon today, when Audrey
Jarvis, five months -old daughter of
i Mr, and Mrs. Percy Jarvis, died in
1 the hospital here. The others who
lost their lives in the fire were Laura
and Vilma Finlay, daughters of A.
Finlay. In the meantime Mrs. Jarvis
also a daughter of Mr. Finlay, is a
patient in the Wingham Hospital,
suffering from burns received at the
time of the tragedy and her recovery
is regarded as doubtful.
:An hour after the Jar-
vis baby died today the
iluneral services were held for
the three victims and all were buried
at the same time in the Wingham
Cemetery. The attendance at the
funeral was the largest seen in Wing -
ham in years and the greatest sym-
pathy was expressed for the surviv-
ors of the family. The funeral was
conducted by the Salvation Army,
Brigadier Burton, of London, being
in charge of the service. The Tuner-
' al was conducted from the Salvation
Army Citadel, Edward street. The
;pallbearers were 12 cousins of Laura
and Wilma Finlay.
The Western Foundry, where Mr.
Finlay is employed, was closed for
the afternoon, the employees attend-
ing the funeral. Following the burial
friends of the parents collected a
substantial purse of money, which
was handed to Mr. Finlay.
