The British Admirals attack on the Borneo pirates, 1845. Creator: Unknown
The British Admirals attack on the Borneo pirates, 1845. View of a battle between warships...Agincourt, Vestal, Daedalus, Wolverine, Cruiser, and Vixen...under the command of Sir Thomas Cochrane, Rear-Admiral, and Commander in Chief, and the fort of Sheriff Osman, a well known daring Arab pirate, whose terrible piracies have paralysed the commerce of the seas round...Borneo...It is to be hoped, that the severe lesson they have received will for a time intimidate the pirates of Borneo; but nothing short of a European settlement...will effectually drive the pirates from their present haunts. Many a ship that has been reported missing has met her fate on the coast of Borneo, and the crew been murdered or sold as slaves. Even now, it is said that ten Europeans and thirty Manilla men are slaves to the Arab chief whose town has been destroyed. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
