		Just such a hero was Commander Lewis M Mortlock who, in command of HM brig-sloop Wolverine, 13 guns, 286 tons, gave his life for his country in most gallant circumstances.
		It is a tribute to a natural seaman that Mortlock achieved so much by working cleverly within his vessel’s limitations and thereby getting more out of her than another might have done, in spite of his having been several years on the beach.
		The Channel engagement was the equivalent of front-page news in its day and the subject of popular prints; there is one delightfully primitive engraving by Charles Turner from a sketch by Masquerier showing Mortlock skewering his frog the while his dog leaps supportively beside him.
