" Prior to loading, the cannon would be well cleaned with a sponge to remove
all sparks, filth, and dirt. The powder was added, followed by a wad of
paper or hay, and the ball was thrown in. After ramming, the cannon would be
aimed with the elevation set using a quadrant and a plummet. At 45 degrees
the ball had the utmost range ? about ten times the gun's level range."
