USS Ontario (1813)
The second USS ''Ontario'' was a three-masted, wooden-hulled sloop of war in the United States Navy, bearing 16 guns, and saw service during and following the years of the War of 1812 and in the Second Barbary War. ''Ontario'' was built by Thomas Kemp, Baltimore, Maryland, in 1813; blockaded in Chesapeake Bay through the War of 1812; and sailed from New York for the Mediterranean on 20 May 1815, Master Commandant Jesse D. Elliott in command.〔U.S.Navy, DANFS, Ontario prgh.1〕〔Harris, 1837 p.69〕
==Second Barbary War==
''Ontario'' arrived at Gibraltar on 15 June 1815 and joined Commodore Stephen Decatur's ten ship squadron sent there to put a stop to the piracy of the Barbary states of Tripoli and Algiers that had plagued the Mediterranean for many years. Present in the fleet was the frigates and and sloop , the latter being used to sail home with the signed treaty.〔Leiner, 2007 p.155〕 ''Ontario'' then began serving in the blockade off Algiers and continued through June when the Dey of Algiers finally and reluctantly agreed to sign a peace with Decatur. The sloop along with the squadron then sailed to Tripoli and Tunis to demand indemnities for pirated prizes and continued operating in protection of American shipping interests until departing for home, arriving at New York in early 1817.〔Leiner, 2007 p.40〕〔Harris, 1837 pp.198-199〕
