STORY OF sTEDE BoNNE1r.
Pirate, Executed In Charleston, Fa
mfliar With ScriDturc


miliar With Scripture.
One would scarcely expect to find
pirate who was notoriously blood
thirsty SO familiar with the Bible that
he hao an appropriate Scripture quo
tation ready for every occasion. Yet
such was the case of Stede Bonnet,
who i'm 1715 to IT'S preyed along the
New England and South Atlantic
coasts.
Stede Bonnet was born a gentle
man. His family was one of wealth
and good standing. Bonnet himself
had served faithfully and with much
distinction with the kings army ir
Barbados, being commissioned to the
rank of major for brave conduct He
was man of refinement and educa-
ton. with many accomplishments for
those days. How he ever became a
pirate. and such n cruel one. Is be-
bond comprehension.
Bonnet began his piratical career
in company with Edward Thatch, the
notorious BLACK Beard" whose name
had spread such terror along the en-
tire Atlantic coast. They had n dis"
rute finally and Bonnet separated
from Thatch. Proceeding to England

issued by King William. which
granted pardon to pirates on certain
conditions. Bonnet took the proper
oath. received his clearance papers
and sailed away.
Under the pretense OF privateering
with tn" kings sanction. he entered
uron career OF plunder. bloodshed
and diabolism IN account of which
IL chills the blood to read. Bonnet
would Quote Scripture to his miser-
Hhle victims while making them walk
the plank into the sea. AS their
white faces appeared above the sur
face OF the water and they stretched
imploring hands to him. he would
look down upon them moclingly and
quote further from the Bible. He
was known on more than one occu-
sion to quote vCr"es Of Scripture to
some wrctchcd victim. and then take
his head off with one sweep of the
sword.
Bonnet became such q terror to the
Carolina coasts. under the name OF
Captain Thomas. that Governor John
"on of Carolina in IT'S determined to
capture him and his crev'. He dis
patched Colonel William Rhett. who

place, and after Il desperate encoun.
or and much b'ooisheu. accom-
plished the carturc OF Bonnet and the
remainder OF his crew.
.Ronrct was brought to trial on
November 10. l71S. 1t was n remark
rblc trial. The pirate pleaded elo-
quently to have his life spared. He
quoted largely from the Scriptures.
At that time there were few chap
tcrs in the Sacred Book that he could
not repeat from memory. verse after
verse. He was convicted. however.
