“The Hawke, an American privateer, Capt. Hibberts, lying in our Harbour, hearing that an English vessel laid off the Bar of Bilboa, waiting for a wind to go in, immediately got under way, and the wind that favoured her from hence prevented the English vessel from getting in. She accordingly found her lying at anchor off the Bar, with a Pilot on board, and made a prize of her: She is called the Adventure, belongs to Jersey, and is laden with salt fish, from Newfoundland to Bilboa."
Lloyd's Evening Post, and British Chronicle (London), 20-22 Oct. 1777.
