'Who's to Blame?', 1875. Artist: Joseph Swain
'Who's to Blame?', 1875. Vulcan makes no excuse to Britannia as she shows him the bill for the loss of the iron-clad man-of-war vessel that sank after a collision off the coast of Ireland. The Vanguard sank after colliding with the Iron Duke, but no lives were lost. A Court Martial cast most of the blame on Vice-Admiral Tarleton who was at the time in charge of the Channel Fleet. Blame was also laid at the door of the Captain, Dawkins, and other superior officers received reprimands. From Punch, or the London Charivari, September 25, 1875.
