His Majesty. Ship Princess Carolina, eff the
'Pad, May 51, 1509.
Sir—As I had been informed that a• schooner lay
in the Vlie passage to guard that anchorage, and
having thought it practicable to cut her out, I beg
to inform on, that having drifted to the northward
so as to open the said passage, I last night made the
attempt (taking with me Lieutenants Bashford and
Dobbs, and Lieutenant Furzer of the Royal Marines,
.yho volunteered) with four boats of his Majesty's
ship under my command, which I am happy to say
succeeded, by hoarding her at half-past eleven o'clock
P. M. and in a few minutes after discharging her
guns surrendered. She proves to be the King of
Holland's schooner Admiral Pietheyer, of seven guns,
three twelve and four eight-pounders with one brass
howitzer, twenty-four-pounders, commanded by Lieu-
tenant D. Van Hearcskerch ; is five years old, cop-
per-bottomed ; she carries two bow chasers, twe;ve-
pounders, and one aft ; her complement is twenty-
seven men, all of whons were at their guns to receive
us, having seen the ship at anchor and expected the
attack. Yam happy to add not any lives were lost
on this occasion ; and I feel it a duty I owe the offi-
cers and mea I have the honour to command, to say,
that had the strength of the enemy been greater, they
manifested a forwardness and zeal on this occasion
that would have done honour to their country. I
have the. honour to be, &c. (Signed)
C. D. PATZR.

P. S. From what we have discovered, I have no
doubt of her being very fit for his Majesty's service,
;hould a vessel A that force and easy draught of wa-
ter be ; she is sent to Yarmouth.
