J. Quayle to Gov.

In the last case the Dutchman ran his ship ashore,but Capt.Doo[Dow] of the Whitehaven cruiser sent an armed boats crew aboard. As soon as they started to open the hatches Capt. Math. Christian with about six boats and crews came aboard,disarmed Doo's men and took them and the ship,which had floated on the rising tide,into harbour. The men are being held captive to answer a charge against them of having robbed a passenger on the boat they boarded in Douglas the previous day. The complaint is that all these seizures are illegal as being within Manx harbours where English cruisers have no right to act without the permission of the local authorities. |

J. Quayle to H. Harrison ‘We are intolerably plagued this summer with cruisers,which rob and plunder vessels not only within the Heads, but even upon dry ground within the harbours. Capt. Dow has robbed passengers of money and boats of provisions . He and Morris,in the Drogheda cruiser,even threaten to attack the merchant's cellars and warehouses. If they do this the merchants will go elsewhere and the Island be absolutely ruined. Capt.Dow seized certain letters from the passengers on the boat in Douglas which are reported to be orders for goods from Ireland. The ten men taken at Ramsey are still detained. |
