Still, many of the officers and men were willing to continue the fight, but were overruled by the captain, who insisted on surrender, and the _Derby_ with 115 prisoners, of whom two were ladies, was carried into Severndroog.
No such loss had befallen the Company for many years.

The much-needed naval stores went to equip Angria's fleet, and the money for the season's investment was lost.

The whole Bombay trade was dislocated.

Angria, desirous of peace, opened negotiations.

The Council, wishing to redeem the prisoners, offered a six months' truce, and, after eleven months of captivity the prisoners were sent to Bombay, with the exception of three who took service with Angria.
In December, 1736, the _King George_ and three other vessels captured a large grab belonging to Sumbhajee Angria, together with 120 prisoners.
