She returned to British ownership by means that are currently obscure. Henry Wellesley entered Lloyd's Register (LR), in 1812. In March 1812 Lloyd's List reported that Henry Wellesley had been on her way to Île de France when she had grounded between Gravesend, Kent and the Downs. She had lost her false keel and was expected to have to go into dock at Portsmouth and unload. By 3 June she was at Madeira, on her way to the CGH, the Cape, and Mauritius. On 21 August Henry Wellesley, Groube, master, had reached the Cape.
