Letter from Captain Wyndham...H.M.S. Bristol, at sea March 21, 1813
Sir. I have the honour to inform you of the capture of the French privateer La Petite Louise, of 4 guns and 45 men, but having only 2 guns and 45 men on board, commanded by Honore' Saissy, a Lieutenant in the French Navy, by the boats of his Majesty's ship Bristol, under my command on the 16th inst. off Oran. She sailed from Denia on the 4th inst. and had made several captures, two of which, Spanish vessels, I have since retaken. George Wyndham, Captain
