For this he earned an almost immediate Baronetcy.Earlier, at the Action of the 18th June 1793, Pellew captured the French frigate 'Cleopatre' and seized the French naval code of secret signals, for this Pellew was rewarded by a knighthood.His greatest achievement was in the successful Bombardment of Algiers, 1816 (for which amongst other testimonials he was presented with the silver box in this sale) thereby directly resulting in the release of twelve hundred enslaved christians.
