Rowland, Capt; Rowland from Janero via St. Thorn
as, Nov. 9th, has arrived at New York Capt Row
land states that tile captain of the United States gun
toquois is entirely and alone blame for the es-
cape Of the Sumter from Port Royal, Martinique The
captain of the gunboat sent man on shore at Port
Royal with signal lights, and gave him instructions to
sgnalze to him the movements Of the Sumter On the
23d Of November signals were made by tile man on
shore that she was leaving the barber, but no notice
was taken OF it by the Capt. Of the Iroquois His first
lieutenant tried to persuade him to give chase which
he would not hear to- saying that would be very I'M
pleasant to him to capture her, Capt Semmes had
been his superior ofiicer and another reason was he
did not want to break. the neutrality laws
The movements of the Sumter were seen from the
deck of the Iroquos, she (tbe 81 taking southerIy
course when the Capt of the Iroquois gave orders 10
proceed to st. Thomas, making the least effort to
capture the privateer after having been lying off the
port several days for that purpose On these facts be-
coming known at st. Thomas the greatest indignation
prevailed among the Americans in port and all others
friendly to the United States
