 For a while, the two squadrons were mixed up together, and Chauncey's flag captain, Arthur Sinclair, urged Chauncey to capture the two rearmost British vessels ("Beresford" and "Melville") but Chauncey apparently exclaimed "All or none" and chased after "Wolfe".He nevertheless refused to cast off the towline to "Asp", and no other American vessels were able to get within effective range.After a chase lasting ninety minutes, Yeo dropped anchor off the north shore of Burlington Bay.
