 Morris's highly professional attitude and his strict disciplinary record soon straightened out the situation, and when the "Colossus" arrived off Cadiz in the summer of 1805, his ship was considered by Admiral Nelson to be amongst the crack ships of the squadron.Morris's ship was placed in the middle of Collingwood's division, and reached battle rapidly thanks to her good seamanship and recent repair.Once engaged, "Colossus" became embroiled in a gun duel with the "Swiftsure", and was just gaining the upper hand when the "Argonaute" appeared from the smoke on her other side, rammed her and crushed her into the "Swiftsure".
