Service history
On 17 November 1886,[2] Swallow ran aground off Yarmouth, Isle of Wight. She was refloated and taken in to Plymouth, Devon, where she arrived on 20 November.[3] She was engaged in East Africa in the expedition against Fumo Amari, who was the Sultan of Wituland (in modern-day Kenya). The expedition resulted in the capture of Pumwani and Jongeni, between 7 and 13 August 1893.[4] The Ashantee Medal was awarded to those who were employed on her together with the clasp "Witu 1893".[5]
Swallow was commissioned by commander Edward Fitzmaurice Inglefield in 1899 to serve on the South America Station. She was in Montevideo in late February 1900, and visited the Falkland Islands the following month.[6]
Fate
Swallow was sold to McCausland & Sons in 1904.[7]
