In that notable conflict which did so much for the American arms and gained for himself undying fame, Admiral Dewey steadfastly refused to accept the shelter of the conning tower, but remained on the bridge of his flagship, the Olympia, throughout the engagement. It was the most dangerous post but it was the best point of observation to direct the battle, and that was the only consideration in Dewey's mind.

The famous sea-fighter who gained the great naval battle of Manila was born in the little capital city of the "Green Mountain State."
