cans, however, took the hawser from
the Tripolitans under the pretense that
they would use it as desired. In the
meantime the men lying down on the
deck were pulling with will at the
hawser leading to the forechains. While
they were still some yards from their
goal the enemy discovered that the
ketch had her anchors. and q man was
sent to the forechains to cut the haw'
ser, an instant later the men were
seen pulling at the hawser, and
the alarm was given. Ameri'

time to be lost; the ships crew was In
confusion, and before they could re-
cover the Americans had boarded.
The Turks fed in dismay as the
Americans swarmed over the sides or
crawled through the port holes, many
OF them jumped overheard, some were
drowned, and those who remained Of
fered feeble resistance. The work had
been carefully planned, and each OIL
Ger set about his task at once. In ten
minutes after Midshipman Morris
reached the deck rocket was sent up
to notify the Siren that the Philadel-
phia had been captured.
Combustibles were passed up from
the ketch, and each boats crew set
fire to the part of the ship assigned to
1t. The ship was ablaze from stem to
stern when Decatur ordered return
to the Mastico, and the little vessel
had swung off clear, when he jumped
into her shrouds. being the last man to
leave the Philadelphia. The Mastico
got away from the burning frigate in
safety, but she still had to pass the
batteries along shore and the Tripoli.
tan gunboats. The men took to the
sweeps and rowed for life in an effort
to get out of range. The Mastico was
fair mark in the illuminated harbor,
but the Turks were too much excited
to do any damage. One shot passed
through her topgallant sail, but that
was the only hurt she received.
The Philadelphia was a mass Of
flames, illuminating the harbor and the
white walled city beyond; from time
to time her guns were discharged. and
at last the flames having reached her
magazine, there was a terrific explo-
sion, and the Philadelphia disappeared
forever.
