The "Cormorant" at Anchor, Destroying the Slave-Brigs "Serea" and "Donna Anna", 1850. Royal Navy ship, under Commander Herbert Schomberg off the coast of Brazil. The [Cormorant's] boats then boarded...and took possession...The detained brigs were then found to be the noted slavers Serea and Donna Anna...fully equipped for the slave-trade...On ripping some painted canvass off the stern of the ship, there was found Lucy Ann, of Greenport, in large letters: and from her being American built, and having the flag of the United States on board, and carrying two whale boats at her quarters, she might have been passed by our cruisers a thousand times at sea without the slightest suspicion...A party was then sent to destroy the brigs Donna Anna and Serea, which were shortly in a blaze; and, drifting into the breakers, soon went into a thousand atoms'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
