two years he kept this up, eluGing cap
ture and making his name a terror to
planters and sailors alike.
Then, in June. 1918, Queen Anne's
Revenge was wrecked off the North
Caroliua coast. Blackboard, instead OF
fighting on land or waiting to be cap
tured, surrendered himself and 80 OF
his best men to Gov. Charles Eden OF
North Carolina. The pirate, in spite
of his eccentricities, was q shrewd
Judge OF human nature. He had good
reason to know what manner OF man
Eden was. He went to the governor,
secured from him a royal pardon and
calmly proposed a business partner
ship. 1t was arranged between them
that Blackboard was to go back to his
pleasant piratical labors and that Eden
Gin return for a fair percentage OF the
plunder) should protect him from legal
Interference.
This was safe and profitable ar
rangement for both. For few months
1t prospered finely. But such a state
OF affairs aroused sharp comment from
the planters on whose rich estates
Blackboard was now leVying a heavy
toll. One local legislator, Edward Mos
ley. complained publicly that while
Eden could easily raise an armed force
to arrest honest men, he did not seem
able to do anything toward capturing
Blackboard. Eden punished this plain
specs by fining Mosley $500 and by
prohibiting him from holding Office for
three years
But the peoples discomfort could not
be SO easily silenced. The colonists.
unable to stir their own governor into
action, appealed to Gov. Spotswood Of
Virginia. Spotswood was a very diff
ferent sort from the proflt-loying Eden.
He promptly fitted up two ships and,
with Lieut.. Robert Maynard In COM
mand, send them against the pirates.
The Virginian force found Blackboard
in Pamlico bay on November IS, 17Is.
A fierce battle ensued. Blackboard
knew what defeat would mean to him,
SO he ordered one Of his men to stand
by the powder magazine with a light
ed match and 10 blow up friends and
enemies alike at a signal from him.
But the signal wac not given. For in
! the thick of the turmoil Blackboard
and Maynard met On deck in a hand-to-
hand fight. 1t was duel whose fame
lived long In Virginia-this deadly
sword clash between dapper young
officer and giant pirate. At length
skill In Workmanship prevailed
against mere savage strength, and a
blow Of Naynard's cutIass stretched
Blackboard dead On his own deck. The
