This is nearly there for B-class, but it needs a little bit more information from before the capture. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 11:48, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Another account of the capture of the Kent and its aftermath

Robert Rivington, Captain of the Kent, was a member of the Rivington family who owned the Rivington Publishing House which in 1894 published a volume

The Publishing House of Rivington https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Ff-6AAAAIAAJ

At the end of the volume pp. 77-81 is reprinted in full an account of the action as it originally appeared in the newspaper Indian Telegraph Bohun (talk) 15:03, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That would be worth adding. If you don't do it, I will try to remember to add it to my list of thing to do. Acad Ronin (talk) 15:50, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
