Capt. Lipscomb and Mas stay'd one night at Jesse's, and sup'd with us.
When at length the two craft did come together, Lipscomb was called on board the cruiser and summoned below to Gammon.
Lipscomb attempted to seize hold of the tiller, so as to steer the vessel back to Hastings Roads, where the cruiser was lying.
Lipscomb had his hand on the latch, intending to attempt his escape.
He tells Lipscomb that the Major had the assistance of the ladies in the execution of the scheme.
