Captain lneraham demanded the

that II he were no. delivered within
an hour of the ultimatum the guns
OF the American ship would open
fire on the Austrian. Following his
threat, Captain lngrahau moved his
ship brOadside to the Austrian fleet
of seven vessels and the guns were
manned. The prisoner was handed
over, however, without any burning
of powder.
During the first ten years of her
service the Saint Louis was engaged
in chasing pirates In the Pacific and
the West Indies. On one occasion Il
pIrate-boat she was chasing ran
aground, and the crew escaped to
