Two officers and nineteen men, who were lately
landed at Delfziel from one of our ships of war to
cut but two Danish pftvateers, went with much com-
posure to refresh themselves first at a tavern. Rev-
mg drink too freely and delayed their business, they
were surrounded by a party of French soldiers and
marched to prison.—So much for folly !
