  • The Texan schooner Brutus was one of the four ships of the First Texas Navy (1836–1838) that wreaked havoc on towns along the coast of Mexico, blockaded Mexican ports, and captured ships bound for Mexico with goods and munitions of war during the Texas Revolution. Her final, and most controversial, voyage was to the Yucatan, where along with her sister ship Invincible, she captured numerous prizes. Among them was the British ship Eliza Russell, the capture of which caused a diplomatic incident as Texas was seeking official recognition from the United Kingdom. When Brutus returned to Galveston to face official sanctions, she and Invincible were attacked by Mexican ships, ran aground and were battered apart by storms in Galveston harbor. With the destruction of Brutus, the first Texas Navy ceased to exist.
