Unless anyone minds, I'm planning a quick tidy up of this article over the next few days. Let me know if you have any comments or questions. Best --Jackyd101 (talk) 23:01, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I have extensively rewritten this article with additional sources and moved it to the new location. I have incorporated all sourced information from the previous version. The following sources were not used inline and so were not transferred across but are listed below for reference. The old history is at the redirect Action of 22 October 1794. I hope no one has a problem with the new version, but if you do please do get in touch. Regards--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:04, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
