1837 massacre in Micronesia
The Ngatik massacre took place over two days of fighting on the atoll of Sapwuahfik in the Micronesian island chain in July 1837. Captain C. H. Hart and his crew of beachcombers of the trading cutter Lampton from Sydney, Australia, massacred as many as 50 Sapwuahfik men. Hart had hoped to raid what he believed was a large stash of tortoiseshell on the island.
