by John Marshall, Royal Naval Biography — Galwey… (1823)
“ Captain Galwey commanded the Dryad frigate during the expedition against Walcheren in 1809; and subsequently on the north coast of Spain, under the orders of the late Sir Robert Mends [1] . On the 23d Dec. 1812, he drove a French national brig of 22 guns, on the rocks near Isle Dieu, where she was completely wrecked: the Dryad on this occasion was hulled several times by shot from the shore, and had her foremast badly wounded, but not a man hurt. Returning from Newfoundland, Mar. 26, 1814, Captain Galwey fell in with the Clorinde. ”
