From the 1812 Privateers.org-- Canadian Privateers.
The sloop Hare, of St. John, New Brunswick, November 29, 1813 (Probably Letter of Marque). Mounted two 6-pdr. guns and a crew of 25.
James Reid, who afterwards commanded the Snap Dragon, took the Hare to New England in mid-winter and captured prizes.
Evidently, the American privateer Snap Dragon was captured.
