four first were loaded with timber, and nearly
ready for sea, the latter was in ballast-they
had been sent up the riverfor greater security:
The beacon had been taken down, and all the
buoys on St. Mary's bar removed, by direction
Of Commodore Campbell, to prevent British
vessels of war from coming into that river
There were no British armed vessels off ST.
