Captain Moubray, returning to his ship, sent a prize crew on board under the command of Mr Jager, the second lieutenant, who had with him Lord Reginald, Voules, and Paddy Logan, and forty men, Richard Hargrave being among the number. It was no easy matter to clear the ships, so firmly had the Wolf's anchor hooked on through the Thesbe's port. It was at last, however, freed.
Scarcely had the two ships separated, than down came the Thesbe's foremast, narrowly escaping falling across the bows of the Wolf. In an action lasting the best part of six hours, the Wolf herself had suffered severe damage. The third lieutenant, the second lieutenant of marines, a midshipman, and ten seamen were killed, and nearly fifty officers and men wounded.
