HMS Telegraph (1813) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HMS Telegraph (1813)
HMS ''Telegraph'' was built in 1812 in New York as the American letter of marque ''Vengeance''. The Royal Navy captured her in 1813 and took her into service as the 14-gun schooner or gunbrig ''Telegraph''. Over a period of only about two years she took numerous small prizes and caused the destruction of a French 16-gun brig. A gale caused the wrecking of ''Telegraph'' in 1817. ==Capture of ''Vengeance''== On 1 January 1813, the 36-gun Fifth Rate 18-pounder frigate ''Phoebe'' captured the ''Vengeance''. ''Vengeance'' was an American letter of marquee schooner of 180 tons and a 15-man crew that had been sailing from New York to Bordeaux with a cargo of cotton, coffee, sugar and indigo. ''Vengeance'' arrived in Plymouth on 8 January. She was closely followed by ''Hunter'', Judathau Upton, master, an American privateer schooner that ''Phoebe'' had also captured. ''Hunter'' had been armed with 14 guns but she thrown 12 overboard during the chase. She had a crew of 73 men.
