Sperry,January 8, 1863, dismissing Sperry from the Naval Academy ``for insubordination, neglect of studies and having in your possession a most obscene book.'' John T. Grimsley was appointed (see Lincoln's telegram to Mrs. Grimsley, August 24, infra), but there is no record of his entrance. Robert J. Sperry is listed as mate in the Navy, May 13, 1864.
