I welcome them all and encourage everyone to sing as one in any langrage that they choose. ❋ Unknown (2006)
Red-hot cannon-balls, and shrapnel, langrage, chain-shot, and Greek-fire — these and the like were all fair warfare, and France might use them freely. ❋ Richard Doddridge (2004)
The ex-barkeeper was generous with these brown and glistening langrage-shot, and aimed volley after volley at our mouths. ❋ Various (N/A)
I do not want her sunk, if it can be helped, for some of those for whom we are seeking may be aboard her; therefore our endeavour must be to sweep her decks clear of soldiers; and in order to do that I will have every piece of ordnance, both great and small, loaded with bullets, bags of nails, and any langrage that you can most readily lay hands upon. ❋ Harry Collingwood (1886)
Englishmen the devastating effect which that single broadside of langrage had wrought upon the unfortunate craft's crew. ❋ Harry Collingwood (1886)
Its charge of langrage swept the French ship from her larboard bow to her starboard quarter, and struck down in an instant twenty-four men. ❋ Unknown (1886)
Its tops, however, were crowded with marksmen, and armed with brass coehorns, firing langrage shot, and these scourged with a pitiless and most deadly fire the decks of the _Victory_, while the _Bucentaure_ and the gigantic _Santissima Trinidad_ also thundered on the British flagship. ❋ Unknown (1886)
That junk astern of us has just treated us to a broadside of langrage, and Chips's opinion of the pair of them is that they are a couple of piratical craft. ❋ Harry Collingwood (1886)
And he pointed to a ghastly great hole in the side of the skipper's head, just above the left ear, where a piece of langrage of some description had crashed its way through the poor fellow's skull into his brain. ❋ Harry Collingwood (1886)
This was doubtless unauthorized, for as the ship passed on, the Confederate, which proved to be the McRae, discharged a broadside of grape-shot and langrage, part of the latter being copper slugs, which were found on the Iroquois's decks in quantities after the action. ❋ Unknown (1877)
I have left sixteen of my men there under my boatswain, and have erected four batteries with cotton bales, each mounting two guns, which are charged to the muzzle with grape and langrage. ❋ Unknown (1867)
I cannot but think that eight discharges of grape and langrage will send them to the right-about however strong they may be. ❋ Unknown (1867)
The crowd of boats, dimly visible through the darkness, as they lay just off the landing, waiting their turn to go in, were at once the target for volleys of grape-shot, langrage-shot, and musket-balls, of which the men on shore had also their share. ❋ Francis Parkman (1858)
Round-shot, and chain-shot, and langrage came flying on board the "Breda," the British seamen sending back much the same sort of missiles as those with which they were complimented. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
Bullets, round-shot, and langrage were flying thickly around. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
These guns, however, were not loaded with round-shot, but with langrage, which, by scattering around, might kill a number of persons at each discharge. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
Our guns, loaded with langrage, sent forth a deadly shower among the pirate crew. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
We had expended, at last, all our round-shot, and the greater part of our powder, and we had to load with bags of nails and any langrage we could find. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
My gun was loaded with langrage, which was likely to prove far more effective than a single shot; for, though that could reach to a distance, it would not, like the pieces of iron, scatter death and destruction around. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
We had on this side also kept a port ready for firing through; and my gun being hauled round, we sent another dose of langrage among them. ❋ William Henry Giles Kingston (1847)
