Blackboard Pays Penalty

CRIMINALS though they were, the
average pirate usually had two
virtues, at least-bravery and loyalty
to his associates. But Capt Edward
Teach, Blackboard, was not troubled
by an excess of the latter. He was an
accomplished hand at the double-cross.
Upon one occasion he decided to get
rid OF his crews and keep all the
booty they had accumulated for him
self. So he wrecked his own vessel
and one of his sloops and on the
other he and his closest friends sailed
away, leaving their unfortunate fell
lows marooned on sandy island.
Then he sailed to North Carolina
and with cool effrontery surrendered
himself and 20 men to Charles Eden,
the governor of North Carolina, who
secured royal pardon for the pirate.
They became intimate friends and 1t
seems that the governor and his Sec
rotary, Mr.. Knight, became partners
in crime with the pirate. Soon after
Blackbeard's last marriage-his four
teenth, by the way, he took TO the
sea again, plundered half dozen
ships in the Bermudas and returned
to share the spoils with the governor.
For several months Blackbeard's
ships lay In the Pimlico river, robbing
every ship that entered and occasion
ally going ashore to rob the planters.
Finally the situation became so un-
bearable that the colonists appealed
to Governor Spottswood of Virginia
to rid the coast of the marauder.
Spottswood acted promptly. He sent
young lieutenant, Robert Maynard,
with two sloops to do the job.
On November 81, 171S, Maynard dis
covered the pirate at the mouth of
Ocracoke inlet Blackboard had been
warned by Secretary Knight, so that
all of his crew was on hand to help
him defend the new schooner which
he had. AS Maynard's ships closed in,
Blackboard sprang to the rail and
shouted D-n you for villains, who
are you? And from whence come you"
"You may see from our colors we are
no pirates" retorted Maynard. "Send
a boat aboard!'' roared the pirate.
81 cannot spare my boat, but l will
come aboard of you as / can with
my sloop," replied the lieutenant.
Selling a bottle of whiskey, Black
beard drank from it and shouted this
toast: Domination seize my soul II
/ give you quarter or take any from
you!" Maynard's reply to this threat
was Il neither ask for, nor will I
give you any quarter" After a short
and bloody fight at close range, Black
beard boarded the lieutenant's vessel
and it was a hand-to-hand battle be-
tween Ii Englishmen and 10 pirates.
The two commanders crossed swords
and after wounding the pirate in no
less than 25 places, Maynard pierced
his throat with lightning-like thrust
of his sword When Maynard sailed
into the Chesapeake bay on his re-
turn to Virginia the head of Black
beard was swinging by his long hair
from the bowsprit end.

One of the Last Of the Pirates

A THOUGH the Eighteenth Gen.
"A fury was the heyday Of bucca-
neers along the American coast, rob-
bling on the high seas was not en-
tirely stamped out in Colonial days,
and one of the problems which the
new republic faced after the Revolu-
ton was the suppression Of sporadic
outbreaks Of piracy. AS late as 1881
a pirate was hanged in New York city,
and his story Is an interesting one.
Charles Gibbs was his name and he
was a farmer boy, born in Rhode Is
land in 1894. He ran away to sea and
enlisted on the American war sloop,
Harriet. He saw action In the fight
with the British ship Peacock and was
one Of the crew, commanded by the
heroic Lawrence (of Don't give up
the ship!" fancy In the fight between
the Chesapeake and the Shannon, who
was taken to England as prisoner.
After Gibbs release from the famous
Dartmoor prison, he opened shop
called the '"Tin Pot" which soon be-
came a rendezvous for abandoned
women and dissolute fellows" These
outcasts soon helped the American
drink up all his profits, and he was
compelled to go to sea again, this time
as a member Of the crew of South
American privateer Gibbs led q mu-

rate He sailed to Cuba and began
plundering ships near Havana and
slaughtering the crews.
Then with booty totaling more
than $4,000 In gold he returned to
New York and decided to retire to
private life He next went to Liver
pool on pleasure trip, but fell in with
"a designing female" one Of the first
harpies of transatlantic passenger
travel, and lost all of his money. So
in 1880 he took to piracy again. He
shipped as a seaman on the brig
Vineyard, plying between Philadel-
phia and New Orleans.
On the voyage, in which the Vine
yard was carrying cargo of molasses,
cotton and $4,000 in specie, Gibbs.
again led q mutiny and murdered the
captain and the mate. Then the crew
set fire to the ship. scuttled 1t and
took to their boats. They landed at
Barrow island where they buried their
money in the sand.
Gibbs planned to return later and
carry his loot away, but he was cap
tured, taken to New York for trial
and there hanged In 1881.
