H. Perkins, George Lyman, and William Sturgis, in command of Benjamin Swift. She cleared from Boston shortly after September 5, 1806, and was spoken 24 days later, "Bound for the N.W. Coast; all well." She traded on the coast in 1807, and was left there by the ''Atahualpa'' on September 10, 1807. It is possible she was hunting on sea-otter shares on the California coast. She doubtless, in accordance with instructions, wintered there and continued her trading in 1808. Her instructions suggested that she go to the Columbia River to dispose of her copper kettles, sheet copper, clothes and tobacco, and added that it would be best to be there in the winter as she could not expect to collect many clamons (dressed moose or elk skins), in less than six or eight weeks.
