I saw what I took to be two white wast-head lights and a red side-light. When I first identified them they were about two points on our port bow. After this the light drew ahead a bit. It is exceedingly hard to give un estimate of how far the lights were off; I should say half a mile. The night waa dark and the hull of the ship could not be seen at all.
