avenue opposite xew york's famous madison square alex ander williams was second lieutenant and robert johnson third lieutenant of the armstrong there was a crew of ninety tneii and this count included the officers the vessel hail been nam ed in honor of a soldier statesmen diplo mat and author who was our minister to france during napoleon's time and became secretary of war in 1812 off the coast of s tilth america that year the ien armstrong then commanded by guy lv i hainpliii had encountered the british sloop coquette mounting twenty-seven guns and badly crippled her it was left for <'; ( pt

from new yoak's blockade he entered faval harbor at high noon to refill the armstrong's casks and barrels * reid's personal history is most inter esting he was horn at norwich conn late in the summer of l783,and died in new york city about three months prior to the bombardment of fort sumter in 1861 his father was a british officer who conscientiously and bravely fought the american col onies in revolutionary days it was samuel chester hied who refusing a post captaincy in our navy after his brilliant victory at fayal became port warden of new york and invented and put into operation the signal telegraph from study hook to the narrows an battery he was the designer of our present national standard and the fath er of ten children their excellent beautiful and talented mother was a daughter of capt nathan jennings still honorably spoken of by his nu merous descendants at or near fairfield conn immediately after the gen arm strong had anchored off faval the american consul john b dabney ordered water to be promptly sent aboard the vessel and invited capt ried to dine with him a pleasant afternoon was passed at the consul's house and in driving about the island about sun set having returned to the armstrong with his shore friends ried noticed from his deck the rapid approach of six english war ships forming the squadron of commodore lloyd three vessels the plantageuet the rota and the carnation had a combined arma ment of 130 gnus and the whole fleet carried upwards of 2,000 fighting sea men in flagrant defiance of neutral ity laws commander lloyd attacked gen armstrong with iiis greatly su perior force hut he soon found that he had caught a veritable marine tartar next morning having counted his dead wounded and presumed to be drowned he bitterly remembered that admiral cochrane was waiting for him at jamaica for re-enforcements that would never lie available in the propos ed conquest of new orleans # # # darkness settled over fayal island and threw its heavy mantle on the peaceful land locked day capt ried was wary certain movements on board lloyd's flag ship the plantagenet had excited the american s suspicion he knew l here would be a full moon and having dismissed his guests and set them oii shore he quickly ordered the armstrong's deck to be cleared for ac tion and moved the vessel nearer to the island until it was within shadow of the governor's castle the moon had now risen and by its light capt ried discovered about 8 o'clock that four boats each containing forty men were being pulled towards the doomed privateer he repeatedly hailed them but got no replv they were soon alongside but he was ready for them as the liritish seamen attempted to board the armstrong the valiant reid passed the word to hisgnnners to open fire on the four boats they were beaten off with fearful slaughter and two of them retired so severely broken that it was with the utmost difficulty they could be kept afloat it being now apparent that the english squad ron intended to renew the onslaught and crush their nettling adversary the governor of faval dispatched a mess age to commodore lloyd forbidding any further hostile demonstrations the haughty briton replied that if any attempt was made by the portu guese to shield the geu armstrong he wo ild at once fire up i castle and town three hours passed but they were not wasted by rind lie knew too well the value of time and preparation and took all the chances at midnight fourteen boats and 500 desperate britishers renewed the unequal attack the dauntless son of connecticut listen ed to the english shout no quarters and vowed that none should be given by liis gunners or crew again there was an outburst of powder hare and an avalanche of hot shot the english recoiled but not in confusion they stubbornly kept up the attack but for more than half an hour supplied a gory harvest to capt ried and his spartan nerved sailors blood was flowing everywhere around the arm strong and rivulets of it from the pri vateer's slippery decks tinged the wa ters of fayal bay thr f the eng lish boats had been sunk and 28'j of their men killed or wounded capt ried dexterously used his cutlass to repel boarders grasping it with his left hand while pistol after pistol ■1 , l le,l and primed by powder buys flamed from his right hand and 1 lid many a stalwart britisher on lory ' eternal quarterdeck the intrepid williams second lieutenant of the gen armstrong was killed in the fore part of the action and his brother of ficers worth and johnson were b ith severely wounded but ried himself miraculously escaped with hardly a bruise his total loss was nine men and of these only two were killed out right * # at di break of the 27th cotnm hlore lloyd signaled the carnation to open her guns upon th ■armstrong and try to ink th it v---l riwl kepi up ' a vigorous return fire and finally com pelled the english brig to haul off for , ivj ii?o s i eing

drawbridge and grimly prepared for a continuance of sanguinary results although com ' niodore lloyd defitd the portuguese | governor and threatened to land 500 i valorous english men he didn't make good his brag in fact he had more than enough of samuel chester rietl and of night fighting in neutral waters with yankee born demons ijis fleet augmented by the sloops thais and calypso was detained at faval ten days for burials and repairs it then sel sail for jamaica and uied took another dinner with his warmly approved friend consul dabney landing at savaniiali t.'ii weeks la ter the commander of the gen arm strong was met at every city and town as ho journeyed northward with heart gratifying testimonials of a nation's esteem virginia tendered him a pub lic dinner and richmond baltimore and
