Joshua Huddy (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

Joshua "Jack" Huddy (November 8, 1735 – April 12, 1782) was a captain in the Monmouth militia and of the privateer ship The Black Snake during the American Revolutionary War. Following his capture, Huddy was controversially executed by irregular Loyalist forces in 1782. His execution was noted for precipitating one of the first international incidents of the newly independent United States. In retaliation for Huddy's execution, patriots petitioned for the execution of captive British officer, Charles Asgill, which would have violated the terms of the Articles of Capitulation. This came to be known as the "Asgill Affair". The Kingdom of France, allies of the US, pressured the young nation to show the officer mercy. The Congress of the Confederation voted to order his release. (en)
