The 360-ton ''Midas'', which mounted four long 18-pounder and four medium 12-pounders, was taken in an action lasting 35 minutes. Of her crew of more than 50, one was killed and three wounded.〔 helped ''Monkey'' escort the ship to port. ''Midas'' had left Africa in April 1829 with 562 Africans, but only 369 were still alive when she was captured, and 72 more died (of "smallpox, diarrhea & scurvy") before ''Monkey'' and ''Nimble'' could take ''Midas'' into Havana.〔
