The commander of the " Lark " was subsequently tried and condemned for his conduct , and Hughes received the vacated command . Captain Hughes was with Edward Boscawen at Louisburg and with Charles Saunders at Quebec . He was in continual employment during the peace , and as commodore , commanded the East Indies Station from 1773 to 1777 . It was not long before he returned to the East Indies Station as a rear - admiral , with an overwhelming naval force . On his outward voyage , he took Gorée from the French , and he was called upon to conduct only minor operations for the next two years , as the enemy could not muster any force fit to meet the powerful squadron Hughes had brought from the Channel . In 1782 , he stormed Trincomalee a few days before the squadron of Suffren arrived in the neighborhood . For the next year , these Indian waters were the scene of one of the most famous of naval campaigns . Suffren was perhaps the ablest naval commander that France ever produced , but his subordinates were factious and unskilful ; Hughes on the other hand , whose ability was that born of long experience rather than genius , was well supported . No fewer than five fiercely contested general actions were fought by the two fleets , neither of them gaining a decisive advantage . In the end , Hughes held his ground . After the peace , he returned to England , and , though further promotions came to him , he never again hoisted his flag . He had accumulated considerable wealth during his Indian service , which for the most part he spent in unostentatious charity . He died at his seat of Luxborough in Essex in 1794 .

Hughes ' fortune went to Edward Hughes Ball Hughes ( c . 1798 - 1863 ) , her grandson by a previous marriage , who became the dandy and wastrel known as " The Golden Ball " .

However , in the melee , Stephenson was shot dead by Inchiquin ’ s brother ( through the eye - piece of his helmet ) and the Irish cavalry lost heart and fell back . The Irish infantry lacked the training and discipline to stand up to a cavalry charge and took flight when attacked , leading to a rout of the Irish forces .
