United Brothers was carrying new recruits to Plymouth when at first light McKenzie sighted a ketch. He lost her in the haze, but suddenly she appeared off the weather quarter. McKenzie cleared for action and returned fire when the ketch attacked. He was killed after about 40 minutes and the master, Francis Hernaman, took command. After another 40 minutes the British saw an approaching sail, which they believed to be a second privateer. United Brothers had had most of her rigging shot away and Hernaman decided to strike. In the fight, United Brothers lost two men killed, one being McKenzie, and one man wounded. Glâneur is variously described as having 10 to 16 guns. Glâneur took her prize into Perros, Brittany.Almost a year later, on 3 December 1807, HMS Scorpion captured Glâneur, putting an end to her career. Glâneur had been preying on shipping for two years and had been the most successful privateer out of Saint-Malo. British vessels had repeatedly chased her but she had repeatedly escaped by "superiority of sailing".

Hoy received promotion to Commander for this action. The Admiralty also thanked Lieutenant Herbert Brace Powell for his part in the action. Later reports do state that the privateer was the Marsouin. Unfortunately, there is no readily accessible record of what transpired, and what Lieutenant Powell's role was. Still, in 1847 the Admiralty authorized the issue of the Naval General Service Medal with clasp "Louisa 28 Octr. 1807" to all surviving claimants from the action, of which there was one.Shortly thereafter, on 24 January 1808, the frigate Iris captured the French privateer lugger Marsouin. of 14 guns and 60 men; she had thrown her guns and anchors overboard during the chase. Captain John Tower, of Iris reported that an examination of her logs and muster list revealed that on her last cruise on 28 October, near Cork, she had attempted to board a transport. The concealed troops fired a small arms volley that killed Marsouin's captain and ten men, and wounded five others.In 1808 Louisa was on the Irish station and under the command of Lieutenant John Page.

His Majesty's Hired armed cutter George was a cutter that served the Royal Navy between 6 June 1798 and 12 November 1801 under contract. She had a burthen of 125 34⁄94 tons (bm), and was armed two 6-pounder guns and twelve 12-pounder carronades. She captured one French privateer. During the Napoleonic Wars the French captured her and she served the French Navy until September 1813; she was struck from the French Navy's lists ca. 1816.Hired armed cutterShe was under the command of Lieutenant Charles Patey when on 18 November 1798 she captured the French privateer lugger Enterprise, off Alderney after a chase of four hours. Enterprise mounted two swivel guns, and had a crew of 16 men under the command of Jacques Adam, master, all well supplied with small arms. Enterprise was two days out of Granville and had not captured anything.On 2 March 1799, George, under the command of Lieutenant George Hayes, sailed from Plymouth with a convoy for Guernsey. for Guernsey.In early 1800 George sailed between the Channel Islands and England, convoying vessels. Then on 1 April 1800 George arrived at Plymouth badly damaged from an engagement with a French lugger. George, of twelve 4-pounder guns and 45 men, had encountered the French lugger off the Gaskets. The lugger was armed with eighteen 6-pounders and had a large crew, but George brought her to action, an engagement that lasted an hour. The lugger attempted several times to run into George to permit boarding, but failed. The lugger then left. George had suffered two men killed and four wounded.In May 1801 Hayes petitioned the House of Lords to be excused from attending the second hearing on a bill authorizing his divorce from his wife for adultery. Hayes explained that he commanded the cutter George, based at Yarmouth, and that he was under orders to take his cutter and several vessels under his command later that month to the coast of Holland for a month on a "particular service" that he was not at liberty to detail. He argued that compelling his attendance would impose "great injury and Inconvenience to His Majesty's service".Napoleonic WarsThe French captured George ca. August 1803. French records report that George was built ca. 1781, and had a displacement of 130 tons (French). In French service she was armed with ten 4-pounder guns.The French Navy initially commissioned her on 6 September 1803 as Transport No.714 (Georges).

On 1 September 1805 the cutter Georges was at Calais, and under the command of enseigne de vaisseau Drinot. She was declared unserviceable in September 1813 at Dunkirk, and struck from the lists around 1816.

HMS Sandwich

Marechal de Cobourg was a hired armed vessel that served the British Royal Navy under contract during the French Revolutionary Wars. Contemporary records also referred to her as Marshall de Cobourg, Marshall Cobourg, Marshall Cobourg, Marquis Cobourg, Marquis de Cobourg, Cobourg, Coborg, and Saxe Cobourg.

During the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars the Admiralty also made use of hired armed vessels, one of which was the Hired armed cutter Swan. Actually there were two such cutters, but the descriptions of these vessels and the dates of their service are such that they may well represent one vessel under successive contracts. The vessel or vessels cruised, blockaded, carried despatches and performed reconnaissance.

The hired armed lugger Valiant served the Royal Navy on a contract from 5 May 1794 to 10 November 1801. She was of 109 90⁄94 tons (bm), and was armed with eleven 3-pounder guns.Lieutenant Thomas Baker commanded Valiant from 20 May 1794 until he moved to HMS Fairy in November as her acting-captain. At the time, Valiant served in the Channel as part of the forces under Rear-Admiral John MacBride.On 8 June 1794 Valiant played a small part in a striking encounter between a frigate squadron under the Guernseyman Captain Sir James Saumarez, and a larger, stronger French squadron. On 6 June, Saumarez received an order from Admiral Macbride to take his frigate, the 36-gun Crescent, the 32-gun frigate Druid, the 24-gun post ship Eurydice, and six cutters and luggers (Valiant being one of them), to Guernsey and Jersey, and then to reconnoiter the French coast around Cancale and Saint Malo for signs of the French fleet.The squadron sailed on 7 December and on 8 December they were some leagues northwest of Guernsey when Saumarez sighted six sails in the distance. He did not think they were French, but he sent Valiant to investigate. As Valiant approached, the vessels hoisted French colours and fired on her. The French squadron sailed between the cutters and luggers on the one side and the three British ships on the other, so the small vessels fled back to Plymouth. Saumarez led the French south towards the Hannoways, both sides firing at each other but at such a distance that the fire was pro forma. He sent Eurydice, his slowest ship, ahead, while Crescent and Druid turned towards the Guernsey coast. Saumarez then sent Druid after Eurydice. Both vessels made it around the south coast of Guernsey into Saint Peter Port. Saumarez sailed close to Guernsey's western shore and through some rocks. What made this possible was Saumarez's pilot, Jean Breton, a Guernseyman who knew the waters well. The French gave up the chase, not being willing to risk their vessels in rocky waters they did not know. Tacking back and forth, Crescent sailed around Guernsey's north side and then south to Saint Peter Port. By 14 June Valiant had rejoined Saumarez.The French squadron consisted of the two 50-gun French razees - Scévola and Brutus - the two 36-gun frigates Danaé and Félicité, and a 14-gun brig. The French squadron mounted 192 guns firing 5056 pounds of shot; Saumarez's three ships mounted 92 guns firing 1500 pounds of shot.In early 1795, Valiant brought 82 officers and men of the 2nd (The Queen's Royal) Regiment of Foot to Guernsey.Valiant's next contribution to an action occurred on 20 March 1796, off the Bec du Raz. A squadron under Sir John Borlase Warren in Pomone, and including Artois, Anson and Galatea, engaged a French squadron escorting a convoy. The British captured four brigs from the convoy and Warren instructed Valiant to take them to the nearest port. (The four brigs were Illier, Don de Dieu, Paul Edward, and Félicité.)The British then engaged the French warships escorting the convoy but were not able to bring them to a full battle before having to give up the chase due to the onset of dark and the dangerous location. Galatea was the only vessel in the British squadron to suffer casualties; she lost two men killed and six wounded. The store-ship Etoile, under the command of lieutenant de vaisseau Mathurin-Théodore Berthelin, struck. She was armed with thirty 12-pounder guns and had a crew of 160 men. The rest of the convoy escaped.By 22 August 1796, Valiant was in the Mediterranean, carrying dispatches for Admiral John Jervis.Valiant's greatest success occurred on 5 and 6 December 1799. She was under the command of Lieutenant Arthur Maxwell, and in the company of His Majesty's hired armed schooner Speedwell, which was under the command of Lieutenant Robert Tomlinson. On the 5th, they chased a French lugger privateer for six hours before they finally captured her some five leagues NW of Guernsey. The privateer was Heureuse Esperance, of Saint Malo, armed with fourteen 3-pounder guns, but with a crew of only 24 men, having placed a number of men aboard the four prizes she had captured before Speedwell and Valiant ended her cruise. Heureuse Esperance had thrown eight guns overboard during the chase.The next day Speedwell and Valiant chased another privateer brig for nine hours (the last hour and ten minutes being a running fight). The British vessels forced the privateer to strike some two miles north of the Swin (sic) Islands. The privateer was Heureux Speculateur, of Granville. She was armed with fourteen 6-pounder guns and had a crew of 58 men under the command of Citizen Louis Joseph Quoniam. She had been cruising for four days but had not taken anything. In the exchange of fire the privateer had had one man killed and seven wounded; there were no British casualties. Tomlinson described Heureux Speculateur as "a remarkably fast Sailer [that] has done a great deal of Mischief to the English Trade."At some point, probably in 1800, Valiant captured Louisa.On 18 April 1801, Providence, of Jersey, came into Plymouth. Valiant had recaptured her some ten leagues off The Lizard. A French 14-gun privateer had captured Providence; after recapturing Providence, Valiant had sailed in search of the privateer. Then on 7 June Valiant escorted the East Indiaman Highland Chief and a convoy to the River Thames.

During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the British Royal Navy made use of a considerable number of hired armed vessels. These were generally smaller vessels, often cutters and luggers, that the Navy used for duties ranging from carrying despatches and passengers to convoy escort, particularly in British coastal waters, and reconnaissance.The Navy Board usually hired the vessel complete with master and crew rather than bareboat. Contracts were for a specified time or on an open-ended monthly hire basis. During periods of peace, such as the period between the Treaty of Amiens and the commencement of the Napoleonic Wars, the Admiralty returned the vessels to their owners, only to rehire many on the outbreak of war.The Admiralty provided a regular naval officer, usually a lieutenant for the small vessels, to be the commander. The civilian master then served as the sailing master. For purposes of prize money or salvage, hired armed vessels received the same treatment as naval vessels.However, Admiral John Jervis, 1st Earl of St Vincent, wrote that throughout his life he "discouraged any friend of mine from serving in a cutter or hired armed vessel." He felt that a good officer would be wasting his time in such vessels, while a bad officer should not be allowed to serve in them. Cutters and hired armed vessels generally did not receive the sort of opportunities that would allow a good officer to shine, or give him visibility to senior officers, while giving bad officers too much independence. The most suitable officers were good sailors with a common education.However, some officers that served in hired armed vessels went on to have distinguished subsequent naval careers. A case in point was Thomas Ussher, who went from the hired armed brig Colpoys to become an admiral.

HM hired armed cutter Hirondelle served the Royal Navy under contract between 23 March 1801 and 19 October 1801. She burthen was 169 3⁄94 tons (bm, and she was armed with two 4-pounder guns and ten 12-pounder carronades.Lieutenant Gustavus Stupart was appointed to command of Hirondelle on 23 March, 1801, which was stationed in the Channel. He served on her until November. Although the contract reportedly ended in October, on 24 November she departed Plymouth Sound for Jersey.On 15 May 1801 Fisgard, Hirondelle, and the hired armed cutter Earl Spencer, recaptured the brig Victory from the French.On 8 August Hirondelle captured two French brigs. She shared the prize money with Amelia. One was Adelaide, but the other's name remains unknown.Twenty days later Hirondelle captured the Tres Jeunes Amis. The prize money notice refers to "His Majesty's Ship Hirondelle", however, at the time Hirondelle was the only vessel by that name serving the Royal Navy.

The Hired armed cutter Brave served the Royal Navy from 29 August 1798 until 22 May 1799 when the transport Eclipse ran her down off Beachy Head. Brave is sometimes described as a lugger and sometimes as a cutter.During her brief service with the Royal Navy her captain was Lieutenant Gardiner Henry Guion (or John Guion or Guyon or Gunion). On 21 January 1799 Brave captured the Jemmy Nosten.

The Royal Navy employed two vessels designated as His Majesty's Hired armed vessel Sir Thomas Pasley during the French Revolutionary Wars. The two vessels were named for Admiral Sir Thomas Pasley. The vessels are also sometimes described as cutters, but more generally as brigs. The Spanish captured the first Sir Thomas Pasley. The second had a brief, but highly productive, career that later led to her crew qualifying for the Naval General Service Medal. After she was returned to her owners in March 1802, she may have been wrecked in the Mediterranean that same year.Records of their service are far from complete and even their name is ambiguous as contemporary records refer to them interchangeably as Admiral Pasley, Pasley, and Sir Thomas Pasley. (The National Maritime Museum's database has all three names, with considerable overlap in the service notes.) Sometimes the vessel is referred to as Paisley, Admiral Paisley, or Sir Thomas Paisley.

The Hired armed lugger Speedwell served the Royal Navy on contract between 11 June 1796 and 31 October 1801. She had a burthen of 152 15⁄94 tons (bm), and was armed with fourteen 4-pounder guns.On 28 May 1797, Phaeton, Melpomene, and Speedwell detained Frederickstadt.At some point, Speedwell, under the command of Lieutenant Robert Tomlinson, recaptured St Patrick, Harford, master.Tomlinson and Speedwell captured another French privateer on 10 October. Speedwell was about nine leagues south of The Start when she encountered a small French cutter. A chase ensued and after six hours Speedwell captured Les Amis, armed with two brass 6-pounder guns and two swivels, and manned by 18 men. Les Amis was four days out of Granville and had not taken anything. Les Amis was very small, with a burthen of 12 tons (bm).Three days later, Speedwell captured another French privateer in the same area, after a five hour chase. The privateer was Telemachus, of six brass 6-pounder guns and six swivels, with a crew of 35 men. Tomlinson put a prize crew aboard her and sent her into Plymouth. Télémaque was a little larger with a burthen of 39 tons (bm).A Speedwell, either the hired lugger or the cutter HMS Speedwell, next appears as a participant in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland (27 August 1799 - 19 November 1790). On 24 September Admiral Andrew Mitchell reported that he detached Captain Boorder, in Espeigle, with Speedwell, to scour the Coast from Steveren to Lemmer.Subsequently, both Speedwells were among the vessels that shared in the proceeds of the Vlieter Incident on 28 August 1799, when the Dutch fleet, with 632 guns and 3700 men, surrendered to Admiral Mitchell, without a shot being fired.December 1799 gave Speedwell her last two captures. Speedwell was in company with the hired lugger Valiant, under the command of Lieutenant Arthur Maxwell. On the 5th, they chased a French lugger privateer for six hours before they finally captured her some five leagues NW of Guernsey. The privateer was Heureuse Esperance, of Saint Malo, armed with fourteen 3-pounder guns, but with a crew of only 24 men, having placed a number of men aboard the four prizes she had captured before Speedwell and Valiant ended her cruise. Heureuse Esperance had thrown eight guns overboard during the chase. Heureuse Espereance was a small vessel with a burthen of 49 tons (bm).The next day Speedwell and Valiant chased another privateer brig for nine hours (the last hour and ten minutes being a running fight). The British vessels forced the privateer to strike some two miles north of the Swin (sic) Islands. The privateer was Heureux Speculateur, of Granville. She was armed with fourteen 6-pounder guns and had a crew of 58 men under the command of Citizen Louis Joseph Quoniam. She had been cruising for four days but had not taken anything. In the exchange of fire the privateer had had one man killed and seven wounded; there were no British casualties. Tomlinson described Heureux Speculateur as "a remarkably fast Sailer [that] has done a great deal of Mischief to the English Trade."In early April 1800 "the Speedwell Cutter" brought into Yarmouth Fancy de Jersey, which she had recaptured off Goree. Fancy had been sailing from Guernsey to Leith when a French privateer lugger captured her.In mid-December "the Speedwell Cutter" towed Recovery into Falmouth. Recovery had no one on board when Speedwell found her at sea. Recovery, Paine, master, had been sailing from Emsworth to Waterford when a French privateer had plundered her.On 31 December Speedwell sailed for the Straits of Gibraltar with despatches. In the Gut of Gibraltar Speedwell encountered Spanish gunboats on 10 February. He was able to repel them though the engagement left Speedwell "much shattered", and with two men wounded.Speedwell arrived back in Britain, at Plymouth, on 23 April, from Rhodes. Tomlinson landed with his despatches at Mount's Bay and took them to London overland. On the way back from Rhodes Speedwell had stopped at Mahón. There she took on board as a passenger Lieutenant Robert Jump, who had been commander of HMS Sprightly until 10 February when she encountered a French squadron under the command of Admiral Ganteume Ganteaume, which captured her. (Jump underwent a court martial on 10 May aboard HMS Gladiator for the loss of his vessel and was acquitted.) On 29 April Speedwell landed 10,000 letters from Egypt, Malta, and Mahon, after the Officers of Health had properly fumigated them.

His Majesty's hired armed ship Charles served the Royal Navy from 17 May 1804 to 13 May 1814. She had a burthen of 309 2⁄94 tons (bm), and an armament of fourteen 18-pounder carronades. Prize money notices and other accounts referred to her interchangeably as the "hired armed brig", "hired armed ship", and "hired sloop".The Lady's Adventure, Darby, master, arrived at Elsinore on 10 June 1806, having received assistance from Charles. Lady's Adventure had lost her rudder on "Trindall Rock" while sailing from Newcastle to Copenhagen.In about March 1807 Charles came under the command of G. Davies Robert Clephane on the North Sea station. Between 12 April and 22 May she assisted at the siege of Danzig, together with the hired armed sloop Sally, and HMS Falcon. Charles proved herself useful during the siege and when the British squadron left, evacuated some of General Nikolay Kamensky's troops. On 19 August Charles detained the Flensburg and sent her into Grimsby. The Flensburg, of Copenhagen, was coming from Messina. In October, by one report, Clephane transferred to HMS Nautilus, but this is not borne out by Nautilus's history.On 17 January 1808 the "armed brig" Charles arrived at Grimsby much damaged and having lost her masts. She had captured a lugger privateer off the Dogger Bank and sent her into Yarmouth. In March 1808 Clephane assumed command of HMS Acorn.From April 1808, Charles's commander reportedly was James Welsh. However, in June Charles brought into the Humber two Danish schooners laden with grain, the Hercules and the Saint Peter. The prize money announcement reports the capture occurred on 3 June, and that commander of the "hired armed brig Charles" was Lieutenant R. Hexter.On 1 August "His Majesty's Hired Armed Ship Charles", R.H. Hexter, "late commander", captured the Vrow Christine.Then on 13 May 1809, the "hired armed ship Charles", under the command of R.H. Hexter, in company with HMS Talbot, captured the Dredokken.On 23 October Captain Thomas Byam Martin, of Implacable, and chief of the Gottenberg station, sent Hexter and Charles to St Kalf Sound, which is a few miles north of Wingo Sound, Sweden. There she was to protect the vessels of a convoy that a storm had scattered, and send them to Flemish Roads, before bringing the rest of the convoy as soon as possible.On 14 November, three Danish sloops arrived at Leith, prizes to Talbot, the sloop Charles, and the cutter Hero.On 4 September 1810 she brought into Grimsby two vessels that she had detained, the Jonge Johanes and the Neptunus, which was carrying a cargo of fish.In 1811, Lieutenant Lawrence Smith commanded. In February gales caused the ship Americano, from "the Brazils", to run afoul of Charles, resulting in extensive damage to Americano.Smith was followed in 1812 by Lieutenant J. Mitchell. On 1 August Charles detained and sent into Dover the Mars, of and for Wilmington. Mars had been sailing from London. British authorities released Mars a few days later.On 20 July 1813 she captured the American ship Eliza Wheeler. Eliza, Wheeler, master, was carrying a cargo of silks to New York. She arrived at Leith on 22 July.On 18 August Charles captured the Emanuel, Humanus Von Leick, master.The French privateer captured the Nancy, Morrison, master, off Beachy Head on 8 October as Nancy was sailing from London to Madeira. Charles recaptured Nancy and brought her into Dover; unfortunately, the master had been killed.Then in 1814 Lieutenant J. Little commanded Charles.

The Hired armed ship London Packet served the Royal Navy from 31 March 1793 to at least 30 September 1800, and despite some records, apparently for a year or more beyond that. She was built in 1792, was of 191 tons burthen (bm), and was armed with ten 4-pounder guns.She was commissioned under Lieutenant J.E. Douglas. Then from May 1794 or so, Lieutenant James Fegan (or Fogan) was captain, with A. Hill as master, at least in 1799.She appears to have had a completely uneventful career on the Liverpool to Channel station, escorting convoys, to at least until late 1801. In October 1801 she had left Plymouth for Liverpool with 100 French prisoners. Although, or despite having heard in Falmouth of the pending peace treaty with France the prisoners attempted to take over the ship. Lieutenant Fegan and the officers were able to suppress the uprising within minutes without injury to officers or crew, but with some injuries among the prisoners. The news of the treaty had caused the British to relax their precautions and the prisoners had decided to take advantage of this.At the resumption of war with France in 1803 the Royal Navy did not rehire London Packet. Instead the ship London Packet, of 189 tons burthen (bm), appears to have sailed as a letter of marque under three different masters.An American privateer captured London Packet, of Guernsey, Domaille, master, on 19 April 1814, as she was sailing from Valencia to Rio de Janeiro.

St Vincent was a hired armed cutter that served the Royal Navy from 16 March 1798 to 29 April 1802, during the French Revolutionary Wars. She was of 194 13/94 tons burthen, and carried fourteen 6-pounder guns.In 1800 she was under the command of Lieutenant John Leckle, (also Leekly or Lackey) at Falmouth. She was employed in cruising in search of privateers and escorting convoys to and from the Downs. She arrived at Portsmouth on 12 July and sailed for a cruise off Cherbourg. She returned on 20 August with a prize, the Danish galiot Friendship, laden with merchandise and bound for Lisbon from Amsterdam.On 25 August, the 74-gun Impétueux, the 28-gun frigate Brilliant, 16-gun ship-sloop Cynthia and the 14-gun hired cutter St Vincent silenced a battery that was armed with eight 24-pounders. Then seamen from the ships landed to assist a large force of army troops to haul the guns up to the heights. The army withdrew the same day after a skirmish with Spanish troops.Saint Vincent sailed again on 14 September to join Harpy, which had sailed a few days earlier. She took a convoy to the westward at the beginning of October and on 7 October brought in the transport Ocean with troops for Jersey. In company with the hired cutter Earl Spencer she sailed for a cruise off the French coast on 28 October and returned on 11 November. Her last cruise from Portsmouth lasted from 15 November to 11 December and after taking a convoy to the Downs on 21 December she sailed for Plymouth. Lieutenant Lackey was promoted to be first lieutenant of HMS Latona. His replacement on Earl St Vincent was Lieutenant Campbell, who had been first lieutenant of Latona.

Hiretsukan (from the Japanese word 卑劣漢 meaning "vicious man" or "despicable person") was a New York-based band that formed in 1998 just outside Washington, D.C. In the following years, they recorded their "Brown Bag" demo, and went out on a few small tours. After a few volatile years which saw several collective moves and incarnations, the group solidified its line-up and relocated to New York City.The current line-up includes Michelle Proffit (vocals), Dave Sanders (guitar, backing vocals), Derek Wimble (bass), and Justin Williams (drums). The band performs a form of hardcore punk, incorporating melodic indie rock style riffs, often in 6/8 time. Michelle Proffit's vocal style consists mostly of screaming and screeching the lyrics. The lyrics lean towards the left-wing side of the political scale.The band recorded its first EP in early 2002 with producer Don Fury. The result, Invasive/Exotic, was released on G7 Welcoming Committee Records in May, 2002. After touring a bit for the record, the band split up that same year. The members were convinced to re-form in late 2003 by the people at G7 Records.Newly reformed with the same lineup, the band began working on songs that would eventually be recorded and released their first full-length album, End States (2005), again on G7 Welcoming Committee Records.

The hired armed lugger Spider served the Royal Navy from 15 August 1795 to 4 April 1796. She was armed with eighteen 4-pounder guns and had a burthen of 172 51⁄94 tons (bm). She took part in one notable action before she was lost in a collision with the 74-gun Ramillies.Spider's commander was Acting-Lieutenant James Oswald, and she served in the squadron under Admiral Adam Duncan off the Texel where she performed reconnaissance duties.On 13 August 1795 Spider captured the Maria "Neutral Vessel", suggesting that she was already on active duty in advance of the formal contract.Two days later Oswald discovered the Dutch fleet some 9–10 miles NW of Camperdown, and reported that fact and the number and types of vessels to Duncan on 17 August. When Admirals Duncan and Pringle set out after the Dutch, together with a Russian squadron, they found that the Dutch had returned to port.Spider's greatest moment occurred on 25 August. Spider sighted and engaged two French Navy brigs off the Texel until the squadron's larger vessels could come up. Once the French brigs had struck, Spider took possession of one of them.One brig was Suffisante, of fourteen 8 and 6-pounder guns, and the other was Victorieuse, of fourteen 12-pounder guns. They were heading into the North Sea on a cruise.French records show that Suffisante's captain was lieutenant de vaisseau Nosten, and state that her actual captors were the 74-gun third-rate Mars, the frigate Venus, and the lugger Speedy. Apparently, Suffisante exchanged fire with the 20-gun lugger Speedy, but the arrival on the scene of Mars and Venus rendered further resistance futile. The Royal Navy took her into service as HMS Suffisante.Victorieuse's commander was lieutenant de vaisseau Salaun. The captors of Victorieuse were Duncan's flagship Venerable, Mars, and a frigate. Victorieuse too joined the Royal Navy, becoming HMS Victorieuse and serving until broken up in 1805. Courts martial acquitted both Nosten and Salaun of the loss of their vessels. On 28 August Duncan wrote he had promoted Oswald to Lieutenant and confirmed him in command of Spider. Duncan's squadron, including Spider, shared the prize money, which was ready for payment in April 1796. In 1847 the Admiralty awarded the one surviving claimant from the action the Naval General Service Medal with clasp: "Spider 25 Augt 1795".When Admiral Duncan rendezvoused in the Downs with his fleet, on 8 January 1806, Spider, Daniel Falara, master, was sent to Guernsey to smuggle articles for the fleet, such as wine, spirits, hair powder, playing cards, etc. When she arrived at the Downs she started to unload her contraband cargo for the various ships but a customs and excise boat, William Wallace, master, followed her in and seized her. Customs found crates addressed to Duncan, William Pitt the Younger, and Henry Dundas. A few days later Wallace was ordered to release Spider and her cargo or lose his job.On 4 April 1796, Ramilies ran down and sank Spider. The fleet was tacking and Spider's master claimed that one of the larger ships had taken the wind out of her sails. Duncan, in writing of the loss, however, states that Oswald had run her aground in a chase. He further remarked that although Oswald would have to undergo the "Ceremony of a Court Martial for the loss of his Lugger", Oswald was a promising officer deserving of encouragement and further command. Oswald did go on to rise to the rank of post captain.

The hired armed ship Sir Thomas Troubridge or Thomas Troubridge, or Trowbridge) was a ship that the Royal Navy put her under contract from 7 July 1804 to 9 May 1806. She was of 473 74⁄94 tons burthen (bm), and carried eighteen 6-pounder guns and eight 18-pounder carronades. She had a brief, astonishingly unremarkable career while under contract to the Navy.Troubridge was one of four vessels that Mr. T.

She was a small vessel, of 44 tons burthen (bm) and six 2-pounder guns, and she served from 27 February 1793 to 1 November 1801.Diligent recaptured the Myrmidon. Myrmidon had been sailing from Newcastle with a cargo of lumber when a privateer captured her. Diligent sent her into Sheerness, where Myrmidon arrived around 14 July 1797.Diligent, under the command of Mr. Matthew Randall, was in the fleet under Admiral Lord Duncan at the Battle of Camperdown on 11 October. Diligent's role was to stand off the larboard or lee division and repeat signals. After the battle, as a member of the fleet even though she did not participate in the combat, she was entitled to share in the £120,000 in prize money for the sale of the Dutch ships captured then. In 1847 the Admiralty awarded the Naval General service Medal with clasp "Camperdown" to any surviving claimants from the action. Diligent's officers and crew qualified.On 24 October 1798 Sirius took two Dutch ships, the Waakzaamheid and the Furie in the Texel. The sloop Martin, Diligent, and several other vessels shared in the proceeds of the capture.At some point, Diligent, still under Randall's command, recaptured the William and Freedom.In 1799 Diligent, under the command of Thomas Dawson, was on the Downs and North Sea station.Diligente was among the vessels that shared in the proceeds of the capture of the galiot Neptunus on 29 March 1799.Diligent participated in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland in the naval part of the expedition under the command of Vice-admiral Admiral Archibal Dickson Andrew Mitchell. On 27 August, Diligent participated in the capture of three Dutch vessels. Three days later, Diligent was among the British vessels at the Vlieter Incident, and therefore shared in the prize money for it too.The sloop Inspector and Diligent detained the Indian Chief, and some neutral vessels, on 30 August 1800.On 15 December 1800, Admiral Archibald Dickson at Yarmouth Roads, sent Shannon, Bittern, the hired armed lugger Phoenix, and hired armed cutter Drake on a cruise to protect the homeward-bound Baltic fleet from French privateers, one having been reported off Scarborough. He stated in a letter that he intended to augment the patrol with the Inspector and the cutters Hazard and Diligent when they arrived.

Marechal de Cobourg was a hired armed vessel that served the British Royal Navy under contract during the French Revolutionary Wars. Contemporary records also referred to her as Marshall de Cobourg, Marshall Cobourg, Marshall Cobourg, Marquis Cobourg, Marquis de Cobourg, Cobourg, Coborg, and Saxe Cobourg. Further adding to the difficulty in tracking her through the records, is that although she was originally a cutter, later the Navy converted her to a brig.Her contract ran from 16 October 1794 to 2 November 1801. As a cutter she had a burthen of 202 68⁄94 tons (bm), and was armed with twelve 4-pounder guns. As a brig she had a burthen of 210 tons (bm), was armed with 16 guns, and had a crew of 60 men.

The London Star reported that "also arrived the hired armed ship Lord Eldon, from a cruise".Then on 12 November 1804 Lord Eldon was under the command of Commander Francis Newcombe when eight or ten gunboats captured her off Algeciras. However, two days later HMS Eurydice and HMS Bittern recaptured her and sent her into Gibraltar. Her master and seven sailors had been wounded.In February 1806 Newcombe took command of HMS Beagle. His replacement on Lord Eldon was Commander G.B. Whinyates.In 1807 Commander John Bradley took command of Lord Eldon on the coast of Spain. His replacement at the end of the year was Commander G.B. Whinyates.On 28 November 1808 HMS Delight, HMS Active (1799), the supply ship HMS Woolwich, and Lord Eldon escorted a convoy of 50 vessels out of Malta, bound for Gibraltar, Lisbon, and London. However, contrary winds forced about 40 merchantmen, and the escorts to return to Malta within two weeks. In 1808/09 Lord Eldon was under the command of Commander C.C. Fisher.There is no information readily available online that mentions when the Navy returned Lord Eldon to her owners or her subsequent fate.

The hired armed lugger Black Joke was a lugger of ten 12-pounder carronades and 108 92/94 tons burthen that entered into the service of the Royal Navy on 22 May 1808.Lieutenant James Leach, late of Milbrook, captained Black Joke on a special service to the Spanish coast before taking command of the bomb vessel Desperate on the Downs station.Lieutenant Moses Cannadey (or Cannady) became Black Joke's captain after having been captain of Pickle, which he had wrecked on 27 July 1808. On 15 May 1809 Black Joke, under Cannadey, captured the San Buona Ventura. This was probably the Spanish lugger Buena Ventura, which had been sailing from Bayonne to Bilbao and which Black Joke sent into Plymouth on the 23rd.On 10 June 1809 Amelia and Statira captured several French vessels, including the French corvette Mouche, of 16 brass 8-pounder guns and a crew of 180 men, which Black Joke had exchanged broadsides with some time earlier. Between 30 July and 16 August Black Joke participated in the unsuccessful expedition to Walcheren and the adjacent Scheldt islands.On 22 April 1810 she recaptured the Francis. Another account has the recapture taking place on 18 April. Francis had been sailing from Fayal to Liverpool when she was captured. She arrived at Scilly on 26 May. Salvage money for the Francis was due for payment on 20 October 1810.On 1 June the French captured Black Joke in the Channel. Black Joke had been carrying dispatches from Constantinople and Malta, and possibly overland dispatches from India, at the time of her capture. Lloyd's List described her as carrying only four guns, and reported that two French privateers had captured her and taken her into Algiers.She may have been the same vessel as the Hired armed cutter Black Joke. In his narrative of his voyages in the Mediterranean between 1810 and 1814, Charles Robert Cockerell reports traveling with Lieutenant Cannadey in April 1810 to Constantinople and the retaking of the Francis en route. He further reports that Black Joke was an old vessel, having been at the Battle of Camperdown, which is consistent with one of the first mentions of the cutter Black Joke.Cockerell has her being captured off Algiers by two French privateers, one of 10 and one of 8 guns. Lord Byron describes Black Joke as having 6 guns and a crew of 27 men. He further writes that Captain Sir Robert Barrie of Pomone reported that two privateers had captured Black Joke off Sardinia, but not until after she had lost seven men of her crew killed resisting them and Cannadey had succeeded in throwing his dispatches overboard.In 1811, Cannadey is listed as the captain of the lugger Defender, in the Downs. Lieutenant Moses Cannadey died at Plymstock on 14 January 1829.

She was of 151 31⁄94 tons burthen (bm), and carried twelve 12-pounder carronades. She was named for Admiral Sidney Smith.She brought a convoy into Plymouth on 15 October. Then, on 24 May 1801, while under the command of Lieutenant C. Patey (or Paty or Paloy), she sailed from Plymouth with dispatches for Egypt.Because Sir Sidney Smith served in the navy's Egyptian campaign (8 March to 2 September 1801), her officers and crew qualified for the clasp "Egypt" to the Naval General Service Medal, which the Admiralty issued in 1847 to all surviving claimants.Readily available records do not reveal what happened to Sir Sidney Smith after the Navy ended her contract.
