Revision as of 01:36, 18 March 2016

A ‘letter of marque’ was a government permit to raid enemy shipping. Such permits were necessary before private vessels could engage in privateering, but they were also obtained by the owners of ships engaged in trade, in case they should have the opportunity to assist in the capture of an enemy vessel.


Of the 27 merchant ships that sailed after the outbreak of war in 1793, 13 had letters of marque, another two were armed, and two more were issued with letters of marque in London while they were on their voyage.
