2 jul 1777 año - Skirmish at Charles Town Harbor

Descripción:

Two British naval vessels disguised as Patriot merchant ships entered into the harbor - one had been recently captured by the British - the Defense, the other was a brigantine. Crewmen from the two ships then boarded and seized the Patriot merchant ship Franklin, which was loaded with rice and indigo and was bound for France. The British then set sail and left the port with all three ships - without firing a shot.
