​MITCHELL. (Retired Commander, 1838. f-p., 17; h-p., 34.)
Spalding Mitchell entered the Navy, 28 Nov. 1796, as Fst.-cl. Vol., on board the Harpy sloop, Capt. Henry Bazely, on the Home station; where, from July, 1797, until May, 1801, he served with Capt. Fras. Fayerman in the Beaulieu 40 and Terrible 74, and with Capt. Stephen Poyntz again in the Beaulieu; in which ship, under the former officer, he fought as Midshipman in the action off Camperdown 11 Oct. 1797. Being nominated in March, 1803, Master’s Mate (after a servitude of eight months as Admiralty-Midshipman in the Sirius frigate, Capt. Wm. Prowse) of the Malta 80, Capt. Edward Buller, he served in that ship in Sir Robt. Calder’s action with the combined fleets of France and Spain, 22 July, 1805. He became Sub-Lieutenant, 21 Sept. following, of the Sprightly cutter, Lieut.-Commander Sam. Gordon; and, being awarded a full Lieutenant’s commission, 22 Jan. 1806, was next, from 14 April in that year until 18 July, 1810, employed, in that capacity, in the Charwell sloop, Capts. Philip Dumaresq, Edwin Henry Chamberlayne, Robt. Lisle Coulson, Hon. Wm. Gordon, and Henry Thompson. He was in consequence present in the operations of 1807 against Monte Video and Buenos Ayres; he also, in 1809, being at the time First-Lieutenant, took command of the boats, and brought off a vessel which the Charwell had driven ashore on the Ile de Bourbon; and in the course of the same year he had the misfortune to be severely wounded by the explosion of a powder-horn while in the act of pointing a gun for the purpose of covering the retreat of a party that had been sent on shore for water in the neighbourhood of St. Denis. In consideration of his sufferings the Patriotic Society voted him a gratuity. His last appointments were, 15 March, 1811, and 2 July, 1813, to the Sceptre and Marlborough 74’s, Capts. Sam. Jas. Holland, Thos. Harvey, and Robt. Honyman, on the North American and West India stations. When Second-Lieutenant of the former ship in 1812, he jumped overboard and saved the life of a seaman.

​MOBERLY. (Captain, 1815. f-p., 14; h-p., 32.)
John Moberly entered the Navy, 20 Aug. 1801, as Fst.-cl. Vol., on board the Triumph 74, Capt. Sir Robt. Barlow. After rather more than three years’ servitude in that ship in the Mediterranean, chiefly in the capacity of Midshipman, he became in succession attached, between Dec. 1804 and his attainment of the rank of Lieutenant, 14 Oct. 1807, to the Barfleur 98, Capt. Geo. Martin, Triumph 74, Capt. Henry Inman (part of the force engaged in Sir Robt. Calder’s action, 22 July, 1805), London and Barfleur 98’s, both commanded by Sir Robt. Barlow, Edgar 74, flag-ship of Lord Keith, Namur 74, Capt. Lawrence Wm. Halsted, and Elizabeth 74, Capt. Hon. Henry Curzon – all on the Home station. In July, 1808, having been intermediately employed in the Cumberland 74, Capt. Hon. Philip Wodehouse, and as Flag-Lieutenant to Sir John Borlase Warren, in the Swiftsure 74, in the North Sea and North America, he obtained an appointment to the Melampus 36, Capt. Edw. Hawker. In that frigate, besides assisting in making prize of ​several privateers, we find him, in the course of 1809-10, escorting a fleet of transports from Halifax to Barbadoes, lending his aid to the capture of Le Colibri French brig-of-war of 16 guns and 92 men, and co-operating in the reduction of Guadeloupe. Removing, in June, 1811, to the Little Belt, Capt. Arthur Batt Bingham, he served as Senior of that vessel in the furious and well-known action fought between her and the American 44-gun frigate President whose fire in half an hour not only greatly damaged her opponent in masts, sails, rigging, and hull, but killed and wounded 32 of her crew. In a gale which arose after the battle, Mr. Moberly, who had proved himself in every respect a most excellent officer, afforded his Captain very great assistance by personally stopping the leaks, securing the masts, and doing everything in his power. On leaving the Little Belt he made a voyage it appears to St. Helena in the Iphigenia 36, Capt. Lucius Curtis, and again officiated as Flag-Lieutenant to Sir J. B. Warren, in the San Domingo 74, on the North American station. He attained the rank of Commander 29 May, 1813; was appointed, in the following July, to the Moselle sloop, at Jamaica; and on 26 Aug. 1815 was posted. He accepted the Retirement 1 Oct. 1846.
Capt. Moberly is at present Inspector of Licences at Simcoe, Upper Canada.

Beresford in the Channel and off Lisbon, as Master’s Mate, in the Poictiers 74, he joined, in Dec. 1810 the Barfleur 98, bearing the flag on the latter station of Hon. Geo.

He participated, also, in an unsuccessful boat affair with five American gun-vessels near Charleston, where the launch belonging to the Hebrus and a prize-tender fell into the hands of the enemy. In July, 1815, we find him engaged in forcing the formidable passage of the Gironde, destroying the heavy batteries by which it was defended, and actively cooperating with the French Royalists in the neighbourhood of Bordeaux; and in Aug. 1816 present at the battle of Algiers. The Hebrus being paid off in Nov. 1816, he was next, 12 July, 1819, appointed to the Cygnet 10, Capt. Thos. Bennett, on the coast of Ireland.
