Capt.
James DELAP(64) James Delap, ancestor
of the family of that name in Barnstable, was a native of Ireland. Mr. Otis
gives an account of his passage to America: "Charles Clinton, an Irishman,
chartered the ship, George and Ann, Capt. Rymer, to transport his friends and
his neighbors to America; the whole number of men, women and children were 114.
He was unfortunate in the choice of a ship. Rymer was a cold blooded villain.
The ship sailed from Dublin for Philadelphia, May 20, 1729, poorly supplied
with stores; the voyage was protracted by the infamy of the master to 125 days.
The passengers consisted of families who had converted their estates, except
such articles as they could take with them, into gold, to purchase land in Philadelphia
and build a town where they could enjoy the civil and religious liberties denied
in their native land. They selected the mild season for their passage, and expected
to arrive in Philadelphia in July, in time to select their place of residence
and put up dwellings before winter; and did not dream that half their number
would find a watery grave before reaching America. Several besides Mr. Clinton
had considerable sums of gold, which was known to the Captain and excited his
cupidity; he prolonged the voyage and kept his ship at sea, until his provisions
were exhausted, that the passengers might die of famine and disease, and then
seize and appropriate their property, such is charged is his diabolical plan.
The ship had not been long at sea until the passengers began to mistrust the
evil designs of the Captain. He was tyrannical in the exercise of his authority;
his officers and men were in constant fear of him; the ship was making slow progress;
the passengers had been put on short allowance; some had died of disease, engendered
by the small quantity and bad quality of the provisions served out; starvation
and death seemed inevitable if no change could be effected; and the passengers,
after consultation, resolved to assume command if a change could not be made.
There were two on board having some knowledge of navigation, who were appointed
to watch night and day, the movements of Capt. Rymer; and they discovered one
night, though the wind was fair, that the ship was sailing in an opposite direction
from her true course. They inquired of the helmsman why he steered so; and were
told it was by the Captain's orders. This fact was communicated to other passengers;
several had then died of starvation and many were so weak and emaciated by want
of food and nourishment they could scarcly stand. They resolved to make and
effort to compel the Captain to keep his ship on the true course; one of the
passengers had a brace of pistols; these were loaded and put in the hands of
two men, and all who had sufficient strength followed to the quarter deck. They
charged the Captain with treachery, &c. He said that the voyage had been
prolonged by headwinds, and not by any fault of himself. He made fair promises,
only to break them; he obstinately kept his vessel at sea, though his passengers
were daily perishing for want of food. He had wit enough to perceive that if
he made for Philadelphia he would be arrested, and his only safty was to keep
his vessel at sea, avoid speaking any vessel, and persist on his diabolical purpose.
Capt. Lothorp, in his passage from Boston to Martha's Vinyard, espied the vessel
and boarded her, and took them into a place now called Orleans. Less than half
of those who embarked at Dublin, from 114 to 190 were then living. Among these
passengers of this ill fated ship, were the father and mother of James Delap,
and his sisters. Rose, Jean and Sarah. They were from Cavan, Ireland. Of the
Delap family, the father and sisters had been buried in the ocean; the mother
was living when Capt. Lothorp came on board - emaciated and very weak; when food
was distributed she took a bisquit, and in attempting to swallow, a piece lodged
in her throat, and before relief could be afforded, expired. Her body was taken
ashore and buried. James, when taken from the boat, was so weak he could not
stand, and crawled to the shore. Capt. Rymer was arrested, sent to England in
irons, tried and condemned, and was hung and quartered in Dublin. James Delap
came to Barnstable, and Nov. 5, 1729, chose John Bacon, Jr., his guardian, and
was apprenticed to learn the blacksmith trade. June 22, 1738, he was married
by Rev. Mr. Green to Mary, dau. of Benjamin O'Kelley, of Yarmouth. She was born
April 8, 1820 (1720?), and had been residing in the family of Dea. Isaac Hamblen,
of Yarmouth. In the summers he sailed in the Barnstable and Boston packet, at
first with Capt. Solomon Otis, afterwards as Master; in winter he worked in the
blackmsmith shop. He removed to Granville, Nova Scotia, in 1775, where he died
of apoplexy in 1789, aged 74 years. He had 10 children, all of whom, except
Thomas, married and had children.

such daring of me, with his arms akimbo, it would have provoked a very a very
patient man. He has given out, if I had a purse, he would he would make me empty
it; and if he can not have justice here, he will do wonders in England; and if
he cannot prevail there, he will try it out with me at blows. If it were lawful

hear me complain." A verdict of L10, against Gov. Endicott, March 1633,
