r.padgett	Origins: Admiral Benbow (74* d)	RE: Lyr Req: Admiral Benbow (from June Tabor)	15 Jul 17
The story of course is a bit hit and miss and there are Wikis for the encounter and Benbow's life story Frankly I would have agreed with Kirby and Wade and left the battle (and got hanged) to fight when the odds and conditions were better ~ The French captain seems to have some sway also ~ Benbow had chain shot round one leg! he did not die straight after the battle in Port Royal ~ the Oral tradition and making things fit the song took over it seems!
