J. Tyndale Biscoe, Royal Marines, said he was in charge of the rifle team of HMS. Dorsetshire.

Dwyer was a member

of that team which had about 50 members. Dwyer was a good ahot, and was ranked about eighth on the team.

Mr. Whyatt: Nos. 1 and 2 would be first class, Bisley class?-He is Bisley class.

Who is?-Dwyer.

The distance between the spot in the booms pointed out to him and the hawser reel on the upper deck was about 20 feet. Heori ginally thought it was 12 but had since made a more careful ex amination, and had found that it was 20 feet. "

- It would be an easy shot for a person firing at a man's head us a target if the head was lying by the hawser reel.

"For a Bisley shot It would be very easy indeed to hit such a target. However it would be morej difficult if the target were up by artificial lighting.
