Texan schooner Brutus : ウィキペディア英語版
Texan schooner Brutus

The Texan schooner ''Brutus'' was one of the four ships of the First Texas Navy (1836–1838) that wreaked havoc on towns along the coast of Mexico, blockaded Mexican ports, and captured ships bound for Mexico with goods and munitions of war during the Texas Revolution.
Her final, and most controversial, voyage was to the Yucatan, where along with her sister ship ''Invincible'', she captured numerous prizes. Among them was the British ship ''Eliza Russell'', the capture of which caused a diplomatic incident as Texas was seeking official recognition from the United Kingdom. When ''Brutus'' returned to Galveston to face official sanctions, she and ''Invincible'' were attacked by Mexican ships, ran aground and were battered apart by storms in Galveston harbor. With the destruction of ''Brutus'', the first Texas Navy ceased to exist.
==As a private warship==
At the beginning of the Texas War of Independence, businessmen John and Augustus Allen endeavored to keep the Texans' supply channels open. At their own expense, they outfitted a ship called ''Brutus'' for the purpose of protecting the Texas coast and assisting troops and supplies from the United States to arrive safely in Texas.
In January 1836, the Allen brothers sold ''Brutus'' to the Texas Navy, and it became the second ship in the fledgling fleet of schooners.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Great Houstonians, 174 Years of Historic Houston, www.houstonhistory.com )
