Captain Martindale, in one of our privateers, was lately decoyed near to one of the enemy's ships of war, in the Bay, and was unhappily taken, and carried into Boston.

Captain Manly has, within a few days past, taken another valuable prize, a sloop from Virginia bound to Boston, loaded with corn and oats; fitted out and sent by Lord Dunmore. ¹

Last Friday night [December 15] seven American masters of vessels, who had, at different times, been taken by the enemy and carried into Boston, made their escape from that place. From one of them we have obtained the following intelligence, viz... That Capt. Martindale, mentioned above, with his officers and men, were sent to England.
