Helena on the 31st March for Sierra Leone and England, and in Lat. 2 N. Long. 10 was boarded by a piratical Schooner, the crew of which killed the master, mate and eleven of her men, and plundered her of a large quantity of gold and silver currency of the island. They cut away the masts and otherwise disabled her ; but she was carried into Sierra Leone by part of the crew who had concealed themselves/ 1 There she was re- paired, fitted out and sent to Europe, and as it is pre* sumable her paper...s were lost, most probably, at the time of her detention, she sailed under a sea-letter, or some other unusual proof of nationality, unintelli- gible to the captors. Among the Colonial coin found on board .was a quantity of copper which the pirates Digitized by CjOOQIC 26 left, and actually in her hold when she reached Lisbon. I have it from unquestionable, nay, I will say the best English authority, that part of this eopper coin, certainly unlike any thing we have in Europe, was taken ashore by some of the Portuguese officers and men who represented it as coin of the pirates.
