Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Chronicle, for 1807, Vol. 18: Containing a General and Biographical History of the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom; With a Variety of Original Papers on Nautical Subjects; From July to December We lainent exceedingly that so injudicious and intemperate a paper, as the preface to Sir Home Popham's trial, should have been laid before the public especially as, to every candid and unprejudiced mind, it must be evident that the elements of a spirit, of which the said preface affects to accuse the officers who remonstrated against ceding their rank to him, are more strongly shewn by dangerous and unfounded re ections on as respectable and honourable a court martial as ever was assembled.
