BRIEF HISTORY

Le Coureur was a lugger or chasse marée of the French Royal Navy.  She was captured by the British cutter Alert on the 17th of June, 1778.  Le Coureur�s captain, Enseigne de Rosily was ordered to surrender by Alert but refused and a fierce battle ensued for approximately an hour and a half.  Both ships were badly damaged and de Rosily struck his colours after five of his crew of his crew of 50 was killed and 12 more severely wounded.
