tom swift among the diamond makers

 Lafitte fought but the fight was basically over before it began there was no way the small amount of men and weapons on board could overpower the massive warship. The enemy ship hove to and boarded and Lafitte and his men were captured after a brief struggle. After that Lafitte was sent to a prison fay in day out all he got was a little bit of food. One day he was called by the rather cruel master of the prison. He talked with him about coming over to the English side of the war but Lafitte would not so the prison master whipped him and put him back into his cell.
