In dim darkness aboard a British vessel, an interrogation leads to warnings of death and release. The Ranger then captures the Mellish with fifteen men and seventy five soldiers surrendering after a swift boarding and mutiny on deck.
The action follows a nighttime engagement where the Ranger and Juno fire on the Mellish after tense orders. The British captain stands on the poop deck as Marines threaten to shoot if he hesitates, while fires ripple from musketry and cannon. The Ranger scores decisive damage as the Juno struggles to avoid collision and the Mellish goes down in the ensuing exchange.
In a fierce close range exchange, the Ranger raked the Juno with a broadside. The stern of the Juno was battered as grapnels bound the ships, pirates swarmed aboard, and surrender was demanded while heavy fire disabled the Juno’s guns.
