Donald Graves--Millard--received a severe sentence in the penitentiary.
He is still serving the sentence, of course. Gray, his accomplice, who
attempted to spirit the drawings outside of the United States, is now
likewise serving a term.
The trial was a swift, nearly secret one. Daisy Huston was not dragged
into the case at all. In one respect the trial failed. Neither culprit
could be forced to tell for which foreign government the dastardly work
had been attempted. The "Spitfire" returned to Dunhaven, and was later
sold to the government, with several other boats. Williamson became
the new Pollard captain.
Several foreign governments were deeply disappointed over not being able
to secure the services of the submarine boys.
But Jack, Hal and Eph could be happy nowhere except under their own Flag.
They are now accepted most cordially by all their brother officers,
young and old, in the United States Navy.
For the most part, so far, the duties of our young officers have been
aboard the different boats purchased from the Pollard Company. Yet,
for the sake of practice and change, they have been, at times, detailed
aboard other classes of craft in the Navy.
