The men went below decks and the incipient mutiny appeared to have been quashed. Trouble flared up again when the mutineers, believing they would be supported by the majority of the crew, again made their refusal to sail to the West Indies known, and began to agitate against the officers. Campbell met with Vice-Admiral Sir Andrew Mitchell the following day and after a period of tensions and standoffs between the officers and the crew, the mutiny collapsed when the marines obeyed orders to arrest the ringleaders. "Temeraire" was ordered to Spithead and an investigation was carried out, which eventually saw the court-martial and punishment of the mutiny's ringleaders. After deliberations, twelve were sentenced to be hanged, the remaining two were to receive two hundred lashes each. Having carried out the executions, "Temeraire" was immediately sent to sea, and Eyles sailed for Barbados, arriving there on 24 February, and the ship remained in the West Indies until the summer. During her time there the Treaty of Amiens was finally signed and ratified, and "Temeraire" was ordered back to Britain. She arrived into Plymouth on 28 September and Eyles paid her off on 5 October. Eyles does not appear to have had any more commands until early 1809, when he was appointed to command the 74-gun , which he did until early 1812. He was given command of the royal yacht HMY "Royal Charlotte" in early 1813, and was promoted to rear-admiral on 4 July 1814. He was promoted to the rank of vice-admiral of the white in May 1825. He died at this rank on 29 September 1835, at Loddington Hall, Northamptonshire, at the age of 66, having never hoisted his flag. A number of general histories, including Goodwin's "The Ships of Trafalgar" and Noel Mostert's "The Line on the Wind", state that all 14 were hanged. Willis studied contemporary records and reports of the court-martial for his "The Fighting Temeraire", and states only 12 of the 14 were sentenced to be hanged. Roy and Lesley Adkins offer a third account, that twenty mutineers were tried, all were found guilty and eighteen were sentenced to death, the other two were to receive one hundred and twenty lashes each. They note that at least six were hanged and possibly as many as twelve, the remainder may have had their sentences commuted to transportation.
