His first voyage was to this country, where he settled early in life; and at the com- mencement of the struggle between the colonies and the mother country, he offered his services to the former, and was appointed first of the first lieuten- ants. In 1775 he obtained the command of a ship under Comm...odore Hopkins, and distinguished himself in several engagements, for which he received his commission as captain of the marine. He then sailed to France, and being well acquainted with the Irish coast, and the northern part of England, he conceived the design of effecting a descent. For a long time he kept the northern coast in a constant state of alarm ; at length he effected a landing at Whitehaveh, and having dismantled a fort, set fire to some shipping in the harbor.
