	John Paul Jones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Captain John Paul Jones was born John Paul in 1747 in Kirkcudbrightshire on the southern coast of Scotland.
		Jones was again left without a command, an unpleasant reminder of his stagnation in Boston from late 1776 until early 1777.
		Jones has been quoted as saying, “I have not yet begun to fight.” He then rammed Serapis and tied up to her, his marksmen in the rigging clearing the decks of Serapis' so a boarding party was able to cross to Serapis and effect its capture.

		Jones now took the command of the Alliance, the captain of which had been summoned to Paris to answer for his insubordination, in deserting the commodore on the coast of Ireland; but his situation was now perilous in the extreme.
		Jones weighed anchor and escaped through the straits of Dover, almost under the eyes of the English men-of-war, all of which had strict orders to secure him, and were, besides, inflamed against him in a high degree from the repeated defeats that British ships had sustained at his hands.
