She sailed from L’Orient under American colors, but with French instructions and accompanied by two French ve els, the ‘‘ Alliance ’’ and the ‘‘ Pallas.”” Jones attempted to enter the harbor of Leith, Scotland, but was prevented by storms. On September 23 the ve els encountered a British merchant fleet, guarded by two British warships, the ‘‘ Serapis"’ and the ‘‘ Counte of Scar borough.”’ The ‘‘ Pallas” quickly captured the ‘‘Scar borough,’’ a small twenty-gun ve el. Jones unhesitatingly attacked the ‘‘Serapis,” though his ve el was far inferior at every point. He lasned the ‘‘Serapis’ ’’? bowsprit to the ‘‘ Richard’s ” mizzenmast and raked the former’s deck with musketry. The ‘‘Serapis” poured broadside after broadside into the ‘‘ Richard.” Finally a bucket of hand grenades, thrown down the “‘ Serapis’’’ hatchways, compelled her commander to surrender. Jones transferred his crew to the “Serapis,” and the “‘ Richard ” sank in a few hours. 88
