Sir John Sherbrooke (Halifax)

''Sir John Sherbrooke'' was a successful and famous Nova Scotian privateer brig during the War of 1812, the largest privateer from Atlantic Canada during the war. In addition to preying on American merchant ships (she captured 18 between her commissioning on 11 February 1813 and her conversion to a merchant vessel in 1814), she also defended Nova Scotian waters during the war. After her conversion to a merchantman she fell prey to an American privateer in 1814. She was burnt to prevent her reuse.
==Origins==

She was originally the American privateer brig ''Thorn'', Asa Hooper master, and was armed with eighteen long 9-pounder guns.〔 ''Thorn'' was from Marblehead, Massachusetts, and she was on her first cruise when the British captured her.〔〔She had sailed with 140 men but had put prize crews aboard two prizes so only 124 remained.〕 At the time of her capture she had already taken as prizes the brig ''Freedom'', loaded with salt, and the American vessel ''Hiram'', with a cargo of flour and bread on a voyage to Lisbon and traveling with a British license (safe conduct pass) that asked all British naval vessels and privateers to let her pass, provided that she was on a ''bona fide'' passage to Spain or Portugal with flour. This capture, on 15 October, gave rise to a US Supreme Court court case in which the court ruled that ''Hiram'', although an American vessel, was a legitimate prize.〔(Justitia )〕〔THE HIRAM, 12 U. S. 444 (1814)〕 The British naval vessels , , and captured ''Thorn'' on 31 October 1812. ''Thorn'' was sold at Halifax as a prize and renamed after the former colonial administrator Sir John Coape Sherbrooke.
