Piantagenet Of seventy-fonr guns; the
frigate Rota Of forty-four guns, and
the brig Carnation OF eighteen guns
The British numbered over 1000 men,
and this, with the total Of 1876 guns,
seemed an overwhelming force against
the seven guns and ninety men Of the
Armstrong.

governor of the port who demanded
Of the British commander, Capt Lloyd,
that he respect neutral territory. the
British opened hostilities by firing a
broadside from the Carnation on the
