| Description | On 7 July 1798, Congress rescinded treaties with France, and the Quasi War began. On that date, the frigate Delaware, commanded by Stephen Decatur, captured the French privateer, La Croyable, off Great Egg Harbor, New Jersey. Before her capture, the schooner had been preying upon shipping off the Delaware Capes and had taken a British brigantine and a Philadelphia merchantman, Liberty. She had also boarded and robbed coaster Alexander Hamilton. Renamed Retaliation, she was put into the U.S. Fleet and was commanded by William Bainbridge. Captain Stephen Decatur, Sr. NHHC Photograph Collection, NH. 95366 |
