A Naval Biographical Dictionary/Bond, Philip
BOND. (Lieutenant, 1815. f-p., 8; h-p., 32.)
Philip Bond entered the Navy, 16 Oct. 1807, as Midshipman, on board the Barracouta, Capt. Geo. Harris, in which vessel he proceeded to the East Indies, where, on removing, with the same officer, into the Sir Francis Drake frigate, he was for more than three years very actively employed, particularly off the island of Java. He returned home in Jan. 1812, on board the Phoebe 36, Capt. Jas. Hillyer; afterwards served with Capt. Harris for seventeen months in the Belle Poule 38, in the Channel and off the coast of Spain; and, on the latter vessel being converted into a troop-ship, attended, under Capt. Fras. Baker, the expedition to New Orleans in 1814-15. He was promoted, from the Isis 50, bearing the flag in the Thames of Sir Home Popham, to the rank of Lieutenant on 19 Oct. in the latter year, but has not since been afloat.
Lieut. Bond married, we believe, a Miss Lafargue. Agents – Messrs. Stilwell.
