ノース海峡の海戦の一騎打ちはで使われた武器は？
The combatants were very close together, but never close enough for grappling, probably because Captain Jones knew of the extra men hidden below decks on "Drake". As well as the great guns, both sides were firing small arms at each other, and here, too, "Drake" was at a disadvantage. The ship's magazine lacked cartridge paper; and when the musketeers ran out of cartridges, they had to laboriously load their guns by pouring in the right amount of powder, then putting in the shot. Musket balls were passed round in the armourer's hat, and two powder horns were shared between all the men on duty. With the other side much better organised, such inefficiency meant the difference between life and death. "Drake" killed just one of Jones's crew, Lieutenant Samuel Wallingford, by musket fire; another two—who were firing from positions in the mast tops—died as the by-product of a broadside. Five of "Drake" crew were killed, including, just under an hour into the fight, Captain Burdon himself, struck in the head by a musket ball. With both the captain and lieutenant out of action, command of "Drake" passed to the master, John Walsh.
