GEORGE ARGLES, Esq
[Post-Captain of 1802.]

This officer’s meritorious conduct as third Lieutenant of the Mars 74, at the capture of l’Hercule, and the wound which he received on that occasion, have already been noticed at p. 616. His post commission bears date April 29, 1802. During the late war he commanded the Trusty of 50 guns, and Diamond frigate, on the North Sea and Jamaica stations, but does not appear to have had any opportunity of distinguishing himself. He married, Sept. 9, 1813, Miss Jane Atkinson, of London.
