Item Details

Description

WAR OF 1812 BRITISH RAID ON SAYBROOK, CONNECTICUT Fine pair of letters concerning a British naval raid near Saybrook, Ct. The first is an account of the attack written by a Capt. A. Bray, 6pp. legal folio, Fort Fenwick, Sep. 12, 1814 to Connecticut Gov. John Cotton Smith (1765-1845). Bray describes the events: "...On Sunday the 6th Inst. 2 Ships & a Brig belonging to the Enemy ankered abreast Shillingworth Harbor...On the Enemy moving against the mouth of the Connecticut River, I repair'd to the Fort & put everything in the best order of Defense...I received an express...that the Brig was making evident preparation for landing men...I immediately repair'd to the Point with the Brass 6 pounder and 6 or 8 artillery men...had a consultation with the officer of Captain Ingraham's Militia Company & a number of volunteers paraded on the Point...Capt. Jewett was met on the way with a part of his company & continued to the Point...Captain Jewett...claimed the sole command, both of Capt. Ingraham & myself...when the Enemy was at our Door...your Excellency had appointed me the command of this post...Capt. Jewett...advised his men to take possession of the 6 pounder...artillery had been taken from my contingent by force...". Also present is a letter from Governor JOHN COTTON SMITH, 1p. 4to.,Sharon, Sep. 19, 1814 to Brig. Gen. Nathaniel Terry in Hartford referring to Bray's angry letter: "...some of the transactions therein related are highly disgraceful to the service and demand a thorough investigation...". Very good.
