On October 1812, the frigate United States, Captain Stephen Decatur, Jr. commanding, was patrolling in the Canary Islands when it encountered HMS Macedonian, which was on a similar mission. In a fifteen minute encounter, the American ship shot away the British ship's masts and it surrendered. Decatur then took it as a prize to New York, the first British warship so taken in the War of 1812.
