men, unit about seven got, within • pistol-shot, when the

He liravely persOed in hiS attempt, and did not sheer if
until he had six nut of his erew.wrutrided, 'and had- induced
fife ship to run- on shore. We inichored•the ship oithiu a
long range of -her, and dispatched the boats under the com-
mand of Lieutenants Collins, Da&e, and W. HoOpe (Master's
Mate), to bring her oit, At this tune her Masts went, and on
