	The Woodland Trust \| All the woods \| Orion
		HMS Orion was built at Adams and Barnard’s yard at Deptford on the Thames and launched in 1787.
		Orion was eighth in the line led by Admiral Nelson, and Codrington had time to view the unparalleled sight as the two fleets converged, each with their attendant frigates.
		The crew of Orion were given their dinner, and Orion held its fire as she approached the battle already in progress until it could be released with maximum effect.

		In 1819, with Congressional passage of the Slave Trade Act, President James Monroe was directed to use warships to suppress the trade and to establish Liberia as a haven for freed slaves next to Sierra Leone on the west coast of Africa.

		The Orion came out on the coast as a trader the second time and the consequence was that the American Commodore detained her six days but could find nothing to condemn her and a short time after the English steamer Pluto captured her with 808 slaves on board and took her to St. Helena.
