JOHN ERSKINE DOUGLAS, Esq Rear-Admiral of the Red.
This officer was made a Commander in 1794, and obtained post rank, June 10, 1795. From that period he commanded the Garland, a small frigate, employed in the North Sea, until the commencement of 1798, when he removed into the Boston, of 32 guns, stationed off the coast of France. In the following year he proceeded to North America, where he captured and destroyed several of the enemy’s ships, and for several months blockaded the Similante, a French frigate, of far superior force to the Boston, preserving his station, often within range of the enemy, during the heaviest gales and thickest fogs.
About the period of the temporary suspension of hostilities, in 1801, we find the Boston at the Leeward Islands, from whence she returned to Halifax, and continued to be actively employed on that station till the latter end of 1804, when Captain Douglas returned to England after an absence of nearly six years.
Soon after his arrival, our officer was apointed to the Impetueux, of 80 guns, forming part of the Channel fleet. From her he exchanged, early in the following year, into the Bellona, 74, and was again ordered to America, where he assisted at the destruction of the French ship, Impetueux, of 74 guns and 670 men, near Cape Henry.
​In the summer of 1807, Captain Douglas was entrusted with the command of a squadron stationed in the Chesapeake river. Whilst so employed, he had occasion to enter into a spirited correspondence with the Mayor of the town of Norfolk, in consequence of one of the ships under his orders having searched an American frigate for British seamen who had deserted to her. The particulars of this event will be given under the head of Captain S. P. Humphreys, in our next volume.
On the Bellona’s return to Europe, she was attached to the Channel fleet, and formed part of the force under Lord Gambier at the destruction of the enemy’s ships in Aix Roads, in the month of April, 1809. She was afterwards employed in the North Sea; and, on the 18th Dec. 1810, captured the French privateer, le Heros du Nord, of 14 guns and 44 men. Captain Douglas’s next appointment was in the spring of 1812, to the Prince of Wales, a second rate, in which he served on the Mediterranean station during the remainder of the war. His advancement to the rank of Rear-Admiral took place June 4, 1814; and at the latter end of 1815, he was nominated Commander-in-Chief at Jamaica, where he continued during the usual period of three years.

# Redcoat/Note to the Reader

Nearly all animal biographies are composite—that is, the life of the particular animal represented, is made up from facts drawn from many sources.
The naturalist very carefully collects all his own experiences with the special species and all those of his friends, as well as those of other writers in whom he has confidence. So all the authors' friends among hunters, trappers and woodsmen contribute to the story, the aim being to keep the story well within the known facts. In this way the author is enabled to give the reader a complete picture of the life of the animal under all conditions. Hence, it goes without saying, in describing the life of the animal by this composite method, more adventures befall the particular animal hero, than would ordinarily under normal conditions, but probably not many more than might befall an exceptional animal hero of the species. ​For there is great difference in animals, just as there is in folks. The lives of some people are drab and uninteresting, while others are colorful and full of adventure. So the Red Fox whose fortunes we follow in these pages is a fox born to adventure and narrow escapes, but none of his adventures are impossible in the life of a common red fox, who uses his wits and fights the battle of life as only a fox can.

THOMAS DRURY, Esq Admiral of the White.
On the 14th Aug. 1781, we find an officer of this name commanding the Camelion, of 14 guns and 125 men, in action with a Dutch vessel of war, mounting 18 guns and 20 swivels. After a close and desperate conflict of half an hour, the enemy on a sudden blew up. The shock was so violent, that it forced the English crew off their legs; when the smoke cleared away, the Camelion’s top sails were observed to be on fire, and they were obliged to be cut from the yards to save the ship. A most dreadful and horrid spectacle also presented itself; many of the limbs and mangled bodies of the Dutchmen were thrown in upon her decks, and sticking in the rigging. Captain Drury sent his boats in search of any of the unfortunate crew that might have escaped; but not a soul was found alive. The Camelion was much damaged, and had 12 men wounded.
The subject of this sketch was advanced to the rank of Post-Captain, March 21, 1782; and commanded the Myrmidon, of 20 guns, on the home station, during the remainder of the American war. At the commencement of the contest with the French republic, we find him in the Fox frigate, employed at Newfoundland; and subsequently in the Flora, of 36 guns, on Channel service.
​Towards the close of the year 1795, he was appointed to the Alfred, a 74-gun ship, in which he served at the reduction of St. Lucia by Sir Hugh C. Christian and Sir Ralph Abercromby. During his continuance in the Alfred, Captain Drury had the good fortune to capture two of the enemy’s ships of war; la Renommee, of 44 guns; and la Favorite, 22. He was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral, April 23, 1804; Vice-Admiral, April 28, 1808; and Admiral, June 4, 1814.
Our officer has recently sustained a severe domestic affliction, in the loss of his only son, who died at Jamaica, Aug. 24, 1822, aged 23 years.
# Royal Naval Biography/Drury, Augustus Vere

Layout 2
AUGUSTUS VERE DRURY, Esq. [Post-Captain of 1814.]
Obtained the rank of lieutenant, Sept. 23, 1799. We first find him commanding the Sylvia cutter, mounting ten 18-pounder carronades, with a complement of 50 officers, men, and boys; in which vessel he sailed for the Cape of Good Hope and East Indies, April 8, 1809.
On the 6th April, 1810, being then in the Straits of Sundu, Lieutenant Drury drove on shore and destroyed a piratical proa, of one gun and 30 men. The next day, one of his boats, manned with volunteers, captured another of these marauders, armed with two 6-pounders, and having on board 30 Malays, of whom several were killed and wounded. On the 11th of the same month, the Sylvia sunk a lugger, of three 18-pounders and 72 men, near the Isle of Cracatoa. The subsequent capture of a Dutch armed brig and two transports is thus officially described by Lieutenant Drury:
“On the 26th instant (April), at break of day, three armed brigs with two lug-sail vessels were discerned under sail in the vicinity of Edam island, hastening towards Batavia. Measures were instantly taken to intercept the sternmost vessels, by bringing to close action the Dutch national brig Echo, of eight 6-pounders and 46 men, commanded by Lieutenant Christian Thaarup, who surrendered to his Majesty’s cutter after a sharp contest of 20 minutes, having 3 killed and 7 wounded; ourselves sustaining a loss of 4 men slain and 3 wounded.
​“The instant that a separation between the Sylvia and her prize could be effected, pursuit was given to the headmost brigs, which, aided by a favourable breeze, and intervening shoals, effected their escape to the batteries of Onrust, leaving H.M. cutter to take possession of two transports, mounting two 9-pounders, and manned by 60 men each; out twelve days from Sourabaya, laden with artillery, equipage, and valuable European goods.
“Sub-lieutenant Chesnaye’s conduct in this affair, and throughout the whole cruise, has been highly meritorious, I therefore beg leave to recommend him as a brave young officer.
“The inferior officers and seamen evinced the greatest desire of bringing the whole of the enemy’s force to action, although much weakened by a deficiency of 12 men, rendered incapable by wounds received on a recent occasion with some desperate pirates.”
This officer’s commission as commander bears date May 2, 1810. He was appointed to the Dover troop-ship, June 17, 1812; and advanced to post rank, June 7, 1814.

# Savery v. Sypher/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
73 U.S. 157
Savery v. Sypher
On the issue of fact the court heard evidence and decided the case adversely to the appellant, and we think correctly. The burden of proof was imposed on Savery, who seeks to confirm the sale, to show the authority of White; for an attorney, virtue officii, has no authority to purchase property in the name of his client. If the negotiations between Savery, the appellant, and the administratrix, Mrs. Sypher, resulted in a valid agreement, binding on the administratrix, there is direct conflict in the testimony as to the terms of it. In numbver of witnesses, the case is in favor of the decree, and there is nothing in the record to enable this court to pass either upon the veracity or intelligence of the several parties. Doubtless, the court below placed great reliance on the evidence of Mrs. Price and Mr. Seeley, who were unconnected with the transaction, and wholly disinterested.
As this whole controversy turns on the payment of taxes-not involving a large amount-it seems extraordinary that the appellant did not end it, by paying the taxes, and thus secure the confirmation of a sale, in which he had such a great personal interest.
The power of Mrs. Sypher as administratrix, to make such an agreement as it is alleged she did, was denied at the bar, but it is unnecessary to discuss the point, as we find, that the purchase by White for her was unauthorized, and in violation of the real agreement under which she was willing to take back the mortgaged property.
It is argued, that the Circuit Court erred in determining the issue raised by the motion upon ex parte affidavits. Not so; for courts of equity must be able to act in a summary manner upon motions of this kind, and any other mode of investigation than the one adopted in this case, would have failed to give the speedy relief necessary under the circumstances. The practice pursued by the court was the usual and proper practice, and we see no good reasons to depart from it.
DECREE AFFIRMED.
