 The court-martial on , on 1 January 1808, for Woodriff and his officers acquitted all, praising the captain for his gallantry and skilful manoeuvring, which had allowed the convoy to escape.The owners and underwriters on the ship and cargo of the "Indus", one of the East Indiamen that "Calcutta" had saved, proposed a subscription of 21 percent on the amount insured.The resulting money was to be presented to Woodriffe and his officers and crew as a small token of gratitude.
