command of Commander Brownson.
An American merchantmen was also
there with cargo to discharge, but
was prevented from landing by Mello's
heet. Her captain appealed to the
commodore in command of the Ameri-
can warships, with the result that the
Detroit was detailed to act as an es-
oort to the American vessel and to sea
that her captain had an opportunity to

navy they sailed. Some gunner of the
Brazilian fleet fired shot at the mer-
chantman. and before the smoke hao
