The Naval History of the United States Volume 2 by Willis John Abbot, H. W. McVicar & W. C. Jackson Book Summary

With the capture of the Chesapeake in June, 1813, we abandoned our story of the naval events along the coast of the United States, to follow Capt. Porter and his daring seamen on their long cruise into far-off seas. But while the men of the Essex were capturing whalers in the Pacific, chastising insolent savages at Nookaheevah, and fighting a gallant but unsuccessful fight at Valparaiso, other blue-jackets were as gallantly serving their country nearer home. From Portsmouth to Charleston the coast was watched by British ships, and collisions between the enemies were of almost daily occurrence. In many of these actions great bravery was shown on both sides. Noticeably was this the case in the action between the cutter Surveyor and the British frigate Narcissus, on the night of June 12. The Surveyor, a little craft manned by a crew of fifteen men, and mounting six twelve-pound carronades, was lying in the York River near Chesapeake Bay. From the masthead of the Narcissus, lying farther down the bay, the spars of the cutter could be seen above the tree-tops; and an expedition was fitted out for her capture.
