And the latter was deprived of life whilst in the proper discharge of the duties of his pro- fession by an unprincipled officer of a French Privateer, who deaf to the claims of justice and the cries of humanity, plunged the sufferer into the ocean and left him to perish in the waves, on the 5th day of April, 1799, aged 26 years.
