In August 1810 a court martial was held on John MILLS, the armorer of SARPENDON for causing the death of Thomas COLLINS, the carpenter's mate when a musket he was examining went off while he was re-flinting it.
The court agreed that it was an accident.
Capt. GREEN was promoted to post rank in February 1812. - 1812 Thomas PARKER, Leith.
He captured the Danish privateer schooner RAP off Fair Isle on 22 April 1812. She was armed with four guns and ten swivels, carried 25 men and was two days out from North Bergen without making any captures.
SARPENDON was lost, supposedly foundered, at the beginning of January 1813.
