The British warships HMS ''Cyane'' and HMS ''Levant'' fought the on 20 February 1815 in mid-Atlantic. Following exchanges of broadsides and musket fire, both ''Cyane'' and ''Levant'' surrendered. The war had actually finished a few days before the action with the ratification of the Treaty of Ghent by both sides, but the combatants were not aware of this. The ''Constitution'' and the two prizes anchored in Porto Praya in the Cape Verde islands. ''Levant'' failed to escape when a British squadron appeared, and was recaptured. ==Prelude== The American frigate ''Constitution'', commanded by Captain Charles Stewart, had broken out of Boston late in 1814 in a westerly gale which blew the British blockading squadron under Captain Sir George Collier off station. Stewart then embarked on a commerce-raiding cruise which took the ''Constitution'' to Bermuda, Madeira, the coast of Portugal and finally back towards Madeira.〔Roosevelt, p.230〕 At 1:00 pm on 20 February 1815, two ships were sighted to the south, and Stewart set all sail in chase, in an easterly wind. The two ships were the sixth-rate Banterer-class post ship HMS ''Cyane'' (sometimes referred to as a "corvette"),〔Forester, p.203〕 commanded by Captain Gordon Thomas Falcon, and the Cyrus-class post ship (also a sixth-rate) HMS ''Levant'', commanded by Captain the Honourable George Douglass.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capture of HMS Cyane and HMS Levant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
