Venus frigate, on board of which ship H, R.H. the late Duke of Cumberland was then a midshipman. After serving as flag surgeon with Admirals Young and Barrington, in H. M.'s ships Royal George, Namur, Barfleur, Impregnable, and Prince of Wales, he was promoted to the Royal Charlotte and Augusta yachts (the only two then post ships), but quitted them to follow H. R. H. the present Duke of Clarence into the Pegasus,on the Newfoundland and West India Stations. He was then advanced to be Surgeon of Sheerness and Woolwich, and eventually to Portsmouth Dock-yard; from which office he voluntarily retired, when (to use bis own expression), "his conscience gave him a hint that he was no longer able to discharge the duties of so important a professional situation." He resigned his breath in quietude, submission, and calmness, in the 84th year of his age. He was cousin to the Hon. Mr. Justice Gaselee.

A Coroner's Inquest was held on board His Netherland Majesty's ship Waterloo, at Sheerness, on the 18th March, on the body of the late Lieut. Pinet, and after examining the body, 'and a strict investigation of witnesses, the verdict was-Died by the visitation of God." Lt. Pinet died in the arms of one of his brother officers; his loss is deeply regretted by the commander, officers, and crew of the Waterloo, having been indefatigable in his arduous duties during the gales and bad weather which the ship experienced during the time of six weeks she was in the North Sea, and the Dutch navy loses in the late Lt. Pinet a very active, gallant, and clever officer. He was formerly a midshipman in the British navy, and was present at the battles of Trafalgar and Copenhagen, but entered the Dutch navy when Holland was delivered from the French. He was buried at Minster, in the isle of Sheppy, with military honours, and attended by the British officers of the navy, and the troops stationed at Sheerness.
