“ About the month of November, 1799, Lord Garlies commissioned the Hussar frigate, at that time fitting out in the Thames; and commanded that ship in the Channel, and on the coast of Ireland, till the spring of 1801, when he removed into the Bellerophon of 74 guns, employed in the blockade of Brest, on which service he remained until the suspension of hostilities. Subsequent to the renewal of the war he commanded the Ajax of 80 guns ”

“ In 1789, we find his Lordship serving as a Lieutenant of the Aquilon frigate, on the Mediterranean station; from whence, in the spring of the following year, he returned to England as a passenger in one of the Smyrna traders. ”
