 | Surname | Cook | | | Rank | Mr | | | Occupation or Status | Commander of Ship | | | Location | Tellicherry  | | | Summary Remarks | Captain Mackintosh of the Fiziallum, whose merited proscription has been some time since announced in our paper has been arrived lately with that ship at Tellicherry, a part of her cargo, about three thousand bags he put on board the ship Countess of Conway, the remainder or at least the major part of it, he has in perfect conformity with his former proceedings sold and converted the money to his own use. Sir Richard Strachan who was lying with His Majesty's ship Phoenix in the roads of Tellicherry sent a message requesting him to immediately give up command which he refused to obey. Captain Smith of His Majesty's ship Perseverance sent him word the following day that he was getting his ship under way to lay onside her to enforce the order. On which Mr Cook, the commanding officer on board thought proper to immediately surrender the ship. It is hoped that some part of her cargo which Government destined for the relief of the distressed inhabitants of the Northern Circars will yet be recovered. | | | Article Type | News Article | | | Issue Number | Vol. VIII, No. 334 | | | Issue Day | 1 | | | Issue Month | March | | | Issue Year | 1792 |
