Date of Death[edit]

I don't know which is correct, but his year of death is listed as both 1937 (at the top and above the picture) and 1933 (at the bottom). Also, he is said to have been 81 at the time of his death - If he was born in 1857, neither in 1933 nor 1937 would he have been 81. --Rem01 07:11, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He died in 1937. Article updated. --MChew 07:51, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Role in Battle of Chemulpo Bay[edit]

The article states that he sank the Russian cruiser Varyag and gunboat Korietz. However, it states in Russian cruiser Varyag (1899) that the respective crews of both ships decided to sink rather than surrender the ship. Betwixtsleepeth (talk) 13:33, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Baron[edit]

I suppose Baron wasn't part of his name, so I wonder the lead pretends so. Bever (talk) 03:04, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
