The French Fleet Off the Coast of Bantry Bay According to Wright & Evans, Historical and Descriptive Account of the Caricatures of James Gillray Pitt, Dundas, Grenville, and Windham are the four winds which blow up the storm to destroy the invaders. FFox, as the carved figure at the head of the Revolution, is represented as influencing the United Irishmen. The crew of the jolly-boat are Sheridan, Liberty Hall, Erskine, M. A.

12. The Battle of Camperdown & The Irish Rebellion On the 11 th of October 1797 the British fleet lead by Admiral Duncan battled with the Dutch fleet of the coast of the Netherlands, as soon as the Dutch started to head out east-by southeast. The British won the battle capturing 10 of the 17 ships of the line, lead by the Dutch Admiral De Winter. It was the intention of the Dutch to cover the landing of the French in Ireland to support the planned Irish Rebellion, and then to storm Scotland with 50,000 troops and cease the Scottish midlands from British control. But Admiral Duncan, a Scots man and British Naval Officer thwarted the Dutch plan of attack with his successful defeat of the Dutch at the Battle Of Camperdown.
