Study Of Naval expense

History

THE NELSON PERIOD

The new Victory Museum in Portsmouth Dockyard, provided through the agency of the Society for Nautical Research, was opened by the Comman- der-in-Chief. Admiral of the Fleet Lord Cork and Ortery, recently, says The Times,

Lord Cork said it was appropria- te that the Royal Dockyard at Portsmouth should have a museum. worthy of its past. The Victory Museum dealt primarily with Nelson; which, was most fitting. for it was from Portsmouth that Nelson sailed for Trafalgar, and it was to Portsmouth that the Victory returned,

within The collection

the museum was intended to illustrate the chronicles of the period covered by the active career of the Victory, which flew the flag in turn of Keppel. Howe, Kemper.felt, St. Vincent. Hood, and Nélson-a great period of our naval history covering 80 years.

The museum would bus form an annexe, as it were, to the Victory, and it was hoped. that all visitors to her would also visit the museum and the panorama of Trafalgar, which should enable them to visualize that great sea battle of which only one ship, the Implacable remained afloat.

That vessel, appropriately enough, could be seen from the building at her moorings in the harbour, where she was carrying out an invaluable work in in- culcating a love of the sea among those boys and girls who spent their holidays in her.

Lord Cork added that their thanks were due to the trustées of the Maritime Museum, who had lent exhibits of high quality, and it was very gratliying to him to be able to announce that this alliance between the Victory Museum and the National Mari- time Museum, with the approval of the Board of Admiralty, was to be permanent in character, and that their curator would always be able to depend upon the co-opera tion of that institution."
