"The Worcester schooner, a tender to the Boreas man of war, sailed with the fleet from Jamaica. In lat. 34. 10. she was ordered to chase a sloop, which she came up with and took. This ship proved to be the Adventure, from Martinico for Virginia, laden with rum and sugar. The Worcester, which lost the convoy, and saw no more of them on her passage, is now with her prize, safely arrived in this port.”
London Chronicle, 9-11 Oct. 1777.
