In June, 1808, he followed the same officer into the Cambrian 40, commanded afterwards by Capt. Chas. Bullen; and, on 13 Dec. 1810, he appears to have been twice wounded, as Master’s Mate, while serving in her boats, with those of a squadron, at the destruction, in the Mole of Palamos, of a large convoy protected by two batteries, on which occasion, out of 600 British officers and men, upwards of 200 were killed, wounded, and taken prisoners.

Geo. Miller Bligh, in which vessel, and the Spartan 38, Capts. Sir Jahleel Brenton and Edw. Pelham Brenton, he actively served, on the Mediterranean station, until Aug. 1810. In consequence of his being invested, after the reduction of the Ionian Islands, with the temporary command of the Zantios armed brigantine, he appears to have been deprived of an opportunity of sharing in the brilliant victory gained by the Spartan over the Franco-Neapolitan squadron in the Bay of Naples, 3 May, 1810.
