1. According to the Journal of H.M. ship-rigged sloop-of-war Raven, Comdr. John Stanhope, commander, armed boats from Raven, H.M. frigate Fowey, H.M. ship-rigged sloop-of-war Swan, and H.M. brig Halifax, joined those from Diligent in attacking the American raiders. UkLPR, Adm. 51/771. The Connecticut Journal reported on 1 July that “17 or 18 armed Boats” attacked the Americans as they neared “Stanford [Conn.] harbor."

2. The journal entry for 25 June of H.M. frigate Fowey, Capt. Henry Colins, commander, and the records of the Vice Admiralty Court of New York identify the captured vessels as the 8-gun Rhode Island privateer General Arnold, Capt. Paul Anderson Cartwright, and the 6-gun privateer Mehitable, Capt. Daniel Jackson. UkLPR, Adm. 51/367; List & Index Society, vol. 27 (Records of the High Court of Admiralty 32 Prize Papers) [London: H.M, Stationery Office, 1967], pp. 263 and 306; for more on the General Arnold, see August Newman and Joseph Sherman to Gov. William Greene of Rhode Island, 20 May, NDAR 12: 402–3. Comdr. Stanhope reported that the British also took one whaleboat and recaptured the "wood Sloop" that the Americans had "taken in the morning," despite vigorous American opposition that subjected the British boats to "a very hot fire." UkLPR, Adm. 51/771. The Connecticut Journal reported that after a "smart Engagement of several Hours," the British captured "two small Privateers," three whaleboats, and retook the American prize. Both Raven's journal and The Connecticut Journal agreed that 24 Americans were killed or captured, while the journal of H.M. frigate Fowey stated that 23 Americans were killed and 25 were captured.
