EXTRACT OF A LETTER PEON 1411. JOSEPH WHIDBEY,
LATE CHIEF MATE OF INC WEST INDIAN, CAPTAIN
DUNN TO HIS FRIEND IN LIFIRPOOL,DATEDOPORTO,
11TH AUGUST, 1805.
11 is with much concern I inform you of cur
being captured by the combined fleets on the Bth
June lafl, they being twenty fail of the line, (even fri-
gates, and two brigs, the day after we left Antigua,
under convoy of the Nsmax fchooner, who efcaped
the enemy by fuperior failing. The French finding
the prizes could not beat up to Guadeloupe, and
fearful of NELSON overtaking them, they next morn
ing difpatched five frigates (having troops on board)
to dentoy them and afterwards to land the troops at
Guadeloupe, which they effeacd, putting my Cap-
tain and others on Shore with them. It was a dif.
treding fight to us to fee our fhips and cargoes burnt
and funk, when two Englifh frigates were bearing
down on them, but too late, the five French frigates
returning at the time, to join the fleet. We were
!hipped of every thing but the cloaths we had on..
‘, On zzd July to the fouthward of Vigo, we fell
in with the Britilh fleet, confining of 13 fail of the
line and one frigate; we were crammed below at fie
in the afternoon, when the Britifh tars gave us three
cheers, which was returned by the cowardly French-
men, and a heavy cannonade commenced on both I
fides. I was un board the Bucentaur, the French
Admiral's Ship, of 90 guns • She, with one of 8o
guns, engaged the Englifh Admiral's Ship, which
unluckily gut dilmaned. A brave 74 going to en.
gage the thip in our line a head of us, flamed along
fide and poured fuch a broadfide into us that occa-
fioned not a few to be brought to the doftor (where
I was), without arms or legs, and caufed numbers
to fall on the decks, headlefs, and no doubt our poor
fellows fuffered greatly alfo. Two Spanilli 74's got
difmalted and were taken ; the French fuffered much
in their rigging and people. Ac half pall nine at
night, being very thick weather, the firing ceafed,
and the Englifh fleet the next morning lay to leeward
of the French line, but the flipper the Frenchmen
got that night, made them afraid of getting a find-
far breakfaft, rind indeed I myfelf was fearful of a
renewal of the engagement, the Englifh not being a
match for fuch a fuperior force. The French bra•
vadoed to me, and Paid they would bear down and
board the Englifh ; I told them to go, they were
ready to receive them, although the three-decker of
the Engliflt was difmafted, but thick weather coming
on, the French made the belt of their way to Vigo
Bay, where we arrived three days after, and landed
the priforrers, which were marched into the Porto-
Vele dominions, where I now am, fufEciently dif-
trelied."
