The Bristol was ordered to take the Macedonia under his orders
and destroy the transports.
H.M.S. Macedonia reports that only two ships, steamships Baden and Santa
Isabel, were present; both ships were sunk after the removal of the
crews.
I have pleasure in reporting that the officers and men under my orders
carried out their duties with admirable efficiency and coolness, and
great credit is due to the engineer officers of all the ships, several
of which exceeded their normal full speed.
The names of the following are specially mentioned:
OFFICERS.
Commander Richard Herbert Denny Townsend, H.M.S. Invincible.
Commander Arthur Edward Frederick Bedford, H.M.S. Kent.
Lieut. Commander Wilfred Arthur Thompson, H.M.S. Glasgow.

H.M.S. Invincible.
Engineer Commander George Edward Andrew, H.M.S. Kent.
Engineer Commander Edward John Weeks, H.M.S. Invincible.
