Attribution[edit]

In a recent expansion of the article I forgot to include in an edit summary that this edit incorporates a couple of sentences from the article Action of 31 May 1762, regarding the scale of prize money from the capture of Hermione. -- Euryalus (talk) 14:10, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
