On his return to England he was appointed to the LEVIATHAN and sent to the Mediterranean to join Nelson. He then took part in the pursuit of the French to the West Indies and in the Battle of Trafalgar, 1805. From 1806 to 1808 he served in the AFRICA on the Cape Station, returning for a period in home waters in 1808.
