Notes
General:
In the War of 1812:
"Capt. Matthew H. Mayo, accompanied by Capt. Winslow L. Knowles, left [Eastham], in a whale boat loaded with rye, bound to Boston, where they arrived in safety. Having sold their rye, they purchased articles for their own families and others, and exchanged their boat for one somewhat larger. In attempting to make their passage home, when near the Gurnet, they discovered a pink-stern schooner of about sixty tons, at anchor within range of cannon shot of them, apparently fishing, with five men on deck. Suddenly a cannon was discharged, the shot of which struck the water about, fifty feet from them; keeping on their course, another shot fell only a few feet short and skipped over them, on which they hove to, and the schooner ran alongside their boat. Capt. Mayo secretly threw over his valuable spyglass, that it might not fall into their hands.
"They were taken on board the schooner and conveyed to the British man-of-war Spencer, where they were kept three days, when an offer was made to ransom themselves and boat for three hundred dollars; and for that purpose Capt. Knowles was permitted to go to Boston, to obtain the money, but was there advised by his friends and a certain naval officer to give up the scheme.
"Capt. Mayo having remained seven days in the ship, was put on board of the schooner that look him, as a pilot, with three British officers and twenty men, well armed with a brass four pounder, muskets, pistols, cutlasses, boarding pikes and other weapons, and ordered to cruise in the bay.
"After two days they were overtaken by a severe northwest wind. Capt. Mayo advised them to make a harbor under Billingsgate Point; but it being his intention to deceive the enemy, and, if possible, to recapture the vessel and make prisoners of all on board, he anchored in bad holding ground. The gale still continuing, he went forward unobserved, and with his penknife partly severed the cable, which soon parted. He then advised the officers to make a harbor to the leeward, about ten miles distant.
"He had previously picked the lock of the first officer's writing desk, and obtained a pair of brass pistols, which he secreted under his jacket.
"The schooner soon grounded on the flats of Eastham. The officers now suspected that he had deceived them; but Capt. Mayo assured them that they had only struck on the outer bar, and would soon beat over, and advised the men to go below, as they might be suspected by the people who began to collect on the shore. He gave them a gimblet, with which they tapped a cask of West India rum, and drank till they were intoxicated.
"The schooner soon began to heel over, as the tide ebbed, and the officers, finding they were deceived, ordered their men on deck for the purpose of resistance. Capt. Mayo immediately threw overboard the arms that were on deck, drew out his pistols and threatened to shoot any one who should attempt his life.
"He went on shore and requested the people who had assembled there, to notify the proper authorities of his circumstances. The militia were ordered out and took possession of the vessel, officers and men, and marched them up to the public house of Mr. Thomas Crosby, where they were put under guard for that night. In the morning they were ordered to the barn of Mr. George Collins, and a guard placed over them; but they were soon permitted to escape, and taking a boat at the shore, went on board of their ship.
"The commander sent a barge, and demanded of the town twelve hundred dollars in specie, threatening that, if it was not paid in twenty-four hours, he would land with a force sufficient to burn, indiscriminately, the vessels, dwelling-houses and salt-works of the inhabitants.
"The deputy marshal of the district, having been informed of the capture of the vessel and crew, demanded the prisoners and their baggage; but they having escaped to the British ship, he took the arms and baggage. He also demanded the vessel, which belonged to persons in Duxbury; but the proper authorities secured her to Capt. Mayo, who justly considered that she was his property. The owners in Duxbury afterwards paid him two hundred dollars for the vessel. If the prisoners had not been permitted to escape, he would have been entitled to thirty dollars for each of them.
"The officer of the barge now peremptorily demanded the money, or he would immediately execute his threats, upon which the committee of safety requested some delay, and permission to visit the commodore on board of his ship, and return in twenty-four hours. Finally they paid two hundred dollars for the baggage taken from the prisoners by the deputy marshal, and one thousand for the protection of the town.
"The money was receipted for by the commodore, with a written promise not to take or destroy any property belonging to the inhabitants of the town of Eastham during the war.
"This matter being settled, the British forces left the shore for their ships.
"The selectmen were the committee of safety, and the town voted to pay all necessary charges occasioned by the British in threatening to land.
"The payment of money for the protection of the town seems to have been unwise and unnecessary. It can be accounted for only from the great alarm and fear which pervaded the minds of the people, of which the enemy took advantage. On cool reflection, it would appear impossible for them to have executed their threat. There was no thickly inhabited village, the salt-works were scattered at a distance on the shore, and the flats extend a mile or more, and are dry at low water. The militia of this and the neighboring towns, with an artillery company having two brass pieces, from Brewster, were on the spot, ready to repel any attempt to land.
"The town voted to pay those persons who boarded the militia when called out for defence against the enemy, ten cents per meal.
"During the [War of 1812] a number of men from [Eastham] were engaged in privateering. Four of them, Samuel Freeman, Jr., Joseph Snow, Josiah Smith and Matthew H. Mayo, were in the Reindeer, Capt. Nathaniel Snow. They were ordered to cruise from the mouth of the English Channel to the Bay of Biscay, to intercept a fleet of East Indiamen. They fell in with it on the coast of France, but as it was under a strong convoy, they let it pass.
"Subsequently they captured six prizes, from which they took part of their cargoes, and burnt some of the vessels.
"One of them was an English brig under Spanish colors, on board of which they put a prize-master, and ordered her to the United Stales; but she was retaken on the passage.
"They fell in with another fleet of merchantmen under a strong convoy, and remaining near it till dark, they engaged one of the vessels, which they were on the point of taking, when one of the convoy coming to her relief, they drew off, and returned to Boston, having been absent five months."
