Myspace Backgrounds
I have found this beauty one evenin just off shore all by her lonezzy. I be guessing the original owners of her fergot to be leavin a few of themselves with her bein many moons ago now. In the rescent future i started wonderin wherevery she did come from so i started askin some questions and not a one came to me with any idea as to where and then one evenin i be out and about galavantin out on me day of birth. I be (walkin with a slight bit of an angle after a few hardy toasts with me crew )i happened across a portrait of me ship on the wall. happy and confused how that just so happened to be lookin back at me . That magically clear and warm evenin in winter i happened across the bottom of that potrait and it stated the followin:The HMS Vulture, Sloop of War, commanded by Captain Sutherland, was a large ship approximately 75 to 100 feet long, with a full complement of guns. It was intended to guard the north flank of Stony Point, but on the night of the battle it was anchored in the middle of the Hudson, just off the tip of the peninsula, probably because the high winds would have blown it onto the rocks at its assigned location. The Vulture was fired upon by the Americans after they captured the fort, but it sailed out of range and was undamaged.it had not been seein for many a year then one evenin it appeard and hence the tale continues with:The Patriot’s Cannon - The cannon that is permanently mounted in front of the Herrick House is in fact the famous "Patriots Cannon". This cannon is reputed to be the same cannon which fired on the HMS Vulture off Teller’s Point (now Croton Point) on September 22, 1780 during the American Revolution. While the New York State Militiamen who manned the gun did not know it at the time, the shots they fired had a pivotal effect on the outcome of the war, for they set into motion a chain of events which led to the unraveling of Benedict Arnold’s plan of treason, thereby averting disaster for the American cause.On the morning of September 21, 1780, the Vulture’s arrival did not go unnoticed. The local residents kept a wary eye on the enemy ship and speculated as to what mischief it might be up to. Two local militiamen were working at a cider mill on the point. One man was 19 year old Moses Sherwood, The other man was John Peterson, a 35 year old a resident of Peekskill of African-American descent. John Peterson was known as "Rifle Jack" to his friends due to his skill as a marksman. Peterson had been serving his country since the beginning of the Revolution five years earlier and had fought in many local engagements. They watched with some alarm as the British sloop set out a boat of soldiers who began rowing toward the Eastern shore. The purpose of the landing party is unknown. It may have been a small raid or they many have been looking for Arnold. Peterson and Sherwood did not wait to ask. As soon as the boat was within range they opened fire with their muskets, striking some of the occupants.The boat quickly returned to the Vulture while the sloop peppered the shore with grape shot. That act indicated to the two Americans that the ship was within artillery range. Rounding up some fellow militiamen and a team of horses, the went to Col. James Livingston, commander of Fort Lafayette at Verplanck, to report what they had seen and done and to ask for a cannon with which to drive away the enemy ship.After some hesitation, Livingston agreed. The cannon was sent from Ft. Lafayette at Verplanck's Point, South to the area of Teller's or Croton Point. By the morning of the September 22, the gun had been emplaced on Teller’s Point and at first light, as Andre was arriving at Joshua Smith’s house on the opposite shore, they opened fire on the H.M.S. Vulture.With the wind and tide against her at that moment, the hapless Vulture was forced to endure a two hour pounding from the American gun which severely damaged her rigging. By the time the tide had changed and the sloop was able to drop down the river out of range of the Americans, she was too badly damaged to return to pick up Andre. Thus stranding Major Andre, which led to the uncovering of the Benedict Arnold conspiracy in 1780. John Peterson and Moses Sherwood lived the rest of their lives in obscurity and poverty. Even though they started the chain of events which led to Andre’s capture and the unraveling of Arnold’s plot their deeds have been little noted except in local histories. The names of their comrades who helped service the cannon on that fateful September morning are unrecorded.After readin this tale i can declare that would be the reason for the completely vacant ship just waitin for little ole me all 280lbs with the strength and wits of more was able to get her underway all by my onezzies.Capt Scorpio Samkeep one eye on your prey, and attack the enemy with everything else.REMEMBER : ye can't be pillagin what is given freely , rape what is given willingly or burn what is already torched. so lets feast on our conquests and lift a tankard to our crew abroad my they live life to the fullest and may we met again in the near future. may all who stand in our way when we gather be careful not to ruffle the feathers of me crew or dinner shall they be.
