forded you, Sir, an opportunity of 

 witnessing the remaining opera- 

 tions, and the spirited fire which 

 was kept up at the battery, under 

 the directions of Lieutenants Ba- 

 zalgette and White, against a very 

 superior one of the enemy, by 

 which I regret to state, that 

 Lieutenant Bewick, of the Pylades, 

 an officer of much promise, was 

 killed. 



My warmest thanks are due to 

 the whole of the captains, officers, 

 seamen, and marines, which I had 

 the honour to have placed under 

 my orders, for their zealous and 

 active co-operation while under 

 my command. I was particularly 

 indebted to Captain Brace, for his 

 able assistance ; he was so good as 

 to direct the advance of the boats 

 and gun-vessels. Captains Dundas 

 and Hamilton had, as usual, been 

 most assiduous in forwarding the 

 operations of the troops; and my 

 thanks are due to Captains Power 

 and Wemyss, for their ready as- 

 sistance. Captain Flinn had vo- 

 lunteered to head a party of sea- 

 men, which were landed with scal- 

 ing-ladders, to storm one of the 

 hill forts, had it been necessary. 

 Captain Thompson, in the Abou- 

 kir, who, assisted by the ships and 

 vessels as per margin,* blockaded 

 the fort, conducted with much 

 effect a false attack to the west- 

 ward of the town, which drew off 

 a considerable number of the ene- 

 my's troops. I have again occasion 

 to notice the good conduct of the 

 Sicilian flotilla, which were well 

 led by Lieutenant Pengally. 1 beg 

 that I may be permitted to bring to 

 your notice Lieutenant Bazalgette, 



* Aboukir, Iphigenia, Furieuse, 

 Swallow, Cephalus. 



senior of tfiis ship, whose services I 

 have long had reason to appreciate. 

 The active officer, Lieutenant Mii- 

 pleton of the Edinburgh, I am 

 sorry to «ay, has been wounded, 

 while on service with the army. 

 I am indebted to Lieutenant Bai- 

 ley, principal agent of the trans- 

 ports, for the zeal and ability with 

 which he has conducted the ser- 

 vice of that department. 



I beg leave to (^ncloie a return 

 of killed and wounded of the ships 

 and vesselsof the squadron. I have 

 the honour to be, &c.
