Little Belt Affair


}}
The ''Little Belt'' Affair was a naval battle on the night of 16 May 1811. It involved the United States frigate USS ''President'' and the British sixth-rate HMS ''Little Belt'', a sloop-of-war, which had originally been the Danish ship ''Lillebælt'', before being captured by the British in the 1807 Battle of Copenhagen. The encounter took place off the North Carolina coast.
The ''Little Belt'' Affair was one of many incidents and events that led to the War of 1812.
==Background==
The ''Little Belt'' Affair occurred four years after the ''Chesapeake''-''Leopard'' Affair of 1807, in which HMS ''Leopard'' had attacked the USS ''Chesapeake'', killing three, wounding eighteen, and putting four of her sailors on trial for desertion. It was fifteen days after an incident involving HMS ''Guerriere'', a frigate. On May 1 the ''Guerriere'' had stopped the brig USS ''Spitfire'' off Sandy Hook in New Jersey. It had impressed Maine citizen John Diggio, the apprentice sailing master of the ''Spitfire''. Secretary of the Navy Paul Hamilton had ordered the ''President'', along with USS ''Argus'', to patrol the coastal areas from the Carolinas to New York.
