English desire to conquer Cuba
It was hoped that Vernon would next attack Havana.1 [Note 1 For English desire to conquer Cuba, see Gentleman's Magazine (London, 1748), XVIII, 303-304: Trevor MSS., p. 59; Ford, Vernon-Wager Manuscripts, August 5, 1739, August 8, 1739, October 24, 1739; undated instructions to Admiral Wager, etc., pp. 63, 64, 68.] "All our hearts are bent on Cuba," Pulteney wrote him. "No search, take and hold," became the war cry.
