Such stratagems ,
though contrary to morality ,
have been justified ,
unless they have been accompanied by perfidy ,
injurious to the rights of humanity ,
as in the example given by Vattel of an English frigate ,
which during a war between France and England ,
appeared off Calais and made signals of distress in order to allure some vessel to come to its relief ,
and seized a shallop and its crew ,
who had generously gone out to render it assistance .
