Extract from Capt. Samuel Tucker’s protest before the American Consul at Buenos Ayres, November 4th, 1830. Original in possession of the Marblehead Historical Society.

By this Public Instrument of Protest, be it known and made manifest to all whom it doth or may concern.

That on this fourth day of November, in the year of Our Lord, One Thousand Eight Hundred and Thirty; personally came and appeared before the Undersigned Consul of the United States of America, at the City of Buenos Ayres, Samuel Tucker, Master, Knott Martin, Mate, and Thomas Pattison, Seaman. All of the American Brig, “Combine,” of Boston, and who being duly and severally sworn, upon the Holy Evangelists of Almighty God, declared and said as follows. That is to say.

That Deponents sailed from the Port of Boston, State of Massachusetts, on the Fifth day of July last past.

(Then follows what occurred each day until the twenty-first.)

That the day following, twenty-first, commenced with heavy gales from the same quarter. At 8 P.M., the said Brig parted the larboard Bower Chain and drove on shore on the rocks to the northward of the Town. After beating very hard the bottom for about thirty minutes, drove out her keel and stern post, and drove in her Starboard Bildge, when vessel and cargo on Board were abandoned.

And the said Deponents, do further declare, Alledge, Protest, and say, that the said Brig at the time of her Departure aforesaid, upon the said intended voyage, was tight, staunch and strong, and had her hatches well and sufficiently caulked, provided and furnished with all things needful and necessary for the said voyage and that Deponents as well as the rest of said Ships Company used their utmost endeavors to preserve the vessel and her lading from Damage.

And further these Deponents say not,
(Signed) Samuel Tucker Knott Martin
Thomas Pattison his mark

And therefore the said Samuel Tucker declares to Protest. And, I, the said Consul, at the request of said Samuel Tucker have protested. And by these Presents do Solemnly Protest against the Winds and Weather, And also all Person or Persons, whom it doth or may Concern for all Losses and Damages whatsoever, that have happened, or may hereafter happen, in consequence thereof.

Thus done and protested at the City of Buenos Ayres, the day and year first above written,
(Signed) George W. Slocum,
Consul U. S. A. Consulate of the United States of America.

Copy of the Report of the Board of Survey, Brig ”’Combine.”

We the undersigned, Richard King Porter, and Frederick Codman, Masters of American Vessels in this Port of Buenos Ayres, and James McGaw, Shipwright at the said place, at the request of George W. Slocum, Esq., Consul of the United States of America, repaired alongside, and on board the American Brig “Combine” of Boston, Samuel Tucker, Master, now on shore high and dry, to the north of the Town, and after due and proper examination do report as follows :

That we find her Rudder unhung and broke, rudder pindles and braces broke, her stern post and stern knee twisted entirely out, the after part of her keel split and otherwise injured, twenty-four feet of her main keel from four aft, twisted off, and laying alongside, her starboard floor timbers amid-ships, stove in through the ceiling, and her bottom otherwise much insured. We therefore, (the undersigned) are of the decided opinion, that the expense to repair said vessel would greatly exceed her value, and do adjudge that it is for the interest of all parties that the Hull of said Vessel with all its appurtenances be sold at Public Sale to the highest bidder, for the benefit of all Concerned.

Given under our hands this twenty-third day of October in the year of our Lord 1830.

(Signed) R. King Porter, Master of the American Brig “Chilo” of Portland.
