In January, 1794, the regiment was stationed at Jeremie, of which town its commanding officer, Lieut.-Colonel John Whitelocke, was commandant. On the 31st of January, the regiment embarked, with the expedition commanded by Lieut.-Colonel Whitelocke, for the attach of the important post of Cape _Tiburon_, which commanded Cape Nichola mole, and an extensive bay. On the evening of the 2nd of February, the squadron approached the shore, where about six hundred and fifty blacks, and two hundred mulattoes and whites were formed to oppose the landing. A few broadsides from the frigates soon cleared the beach, and as the sun was declining beneath the horizon, Major Brent Spencer, of the THIRTEENTH, quitted the ships with the flank companies of the expedition. As the boats approached the shore, a line of opponents commenced a sharp fire of musketry; but the soldiers leaped upon the beach, charged with bayonets, routed their opponents in an instant, killed and wounded a number of blacks and mulattoes, and took possession of a house which was well situated for protecting the landing of the whole of the detachment. At daylight on the following morning, the THIRTEENTH and twentieth regiments landed, with a party of marines and of the British Legion; and as the troops prepared to attack the post, the enemy fled, leaving twenty-two pieces of heavy ordnance, three field-pieces, and a magazine full of every description of ammunition, behind them: about fifty of the enemy were killed and wounded, and a hundred and fifty taken prisoners. The loss of the regiment, on this occasion, was limited to two private soldiers killed; Captain the Honorable Charles Colville, Lieutenant George Kinnaird Dana, Volunteer Dolphina, and two private soldiers, wounded. The conduct of Major Spencer of the THIRTEENTH, and of the officers and soldiers of the flank companies, was commended in Lieut.-Colonel Whitelocke’s despatch. This important post was placed under the charge of Lieutenant Robert Baskerville, of the THIRTEENTH, who had fifty men of his own regiment, the colonial corps, and Jean Kino’s corps from Irois, under his orders for the defence of the post.
