Lieutenant Rogers' report.
United States bark W. G. Anderson, Bahama channel, Nov. 13, 1861.
sir: I last had the honor of addressing you under date of November 4, per schooner J. J. Spencer, enclosing abstract log of the United States bark W. G. Anderson to that date, and, to my regret, had nothing to report to the department of any moment.
I now have the gratification to inform you that we have been fortunate enough to capture the reb thin three days sail of Key West, to take them and the vessel into that port and deliver them to the proper authorities, and thence return to my cruising-ground.
I also am desirous of procuring, if possible, some ballast, of which the bark is very much in need.
Trusting that my proceedings will meet with your approbation, I have the honor to be, respectfully, your obedient servant, William C. Rogers, A. V. Lieut. Comm'g U. S. Bark W. G. Anderson. Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy.
