"Based on a famous Stanley Holloway monologue in which Sam, according to this
film, dreams of the time when he was press-ganged and was present at one of Nelson's sea
battles. By refusing to let go two cannonballs, he is nearly drowned but is saved by
Nelson, who, according to draughtsmanship, is 'Stan Laurel' to Hardy's 'Oliver'. Up to the
standard of previous cartoons in this series."
