An Interesting Fact.
Maryland Privateers

The casual reader of history may
lightly pass over the part played by
Maryland and Marylanders in the try
ing days of It's and until the end of
the great conflict with Great Britain,
especially in regard to naval opera
tions.
From Andrews History of Mary
land we learn that in ITS there was
still hope on the part of some men,
bers of Congress that their friends in
the mother country would secure re-
dress of their grievances. But as
time went on the conditions became
intolerable, it was found necessary to
create a naval force to insure the
success of the Colonies. In that year
Congress authorized the construction
and equipment of thirteen vessels as
the nucleus of a Continental navy.
But it was after the outbreak of hos
tilities that the State of Maryland be-
came engaged in fitting out all types
of vessels for operation in the Chesa-
peake, having for their object the rid
ding of the Bay of the smaller YES
sells of the British, as well as for
privateering on the high seas.
The operation of privately armed
vessels was authorized by Congress
in 1776, but the subject had been
previously passed upon by the Council
of Safety of Maryland, and from
April 1, lit to 1888 no less than 259
privateers were launched against
British commerce. French, Dutch and
Spanish capital was secured for the
equipment of these Maryland Priva-
teers and many of the fortunes of old
Baltimore Town were founded upon
these ventures. They inflicted great
damage on the enemy, and helped no
doubt to make war unpopular with the
merchants of Great Britain.
However, Maryland seamen did not
confine their activities alone to the
capture of merchant prizes, but did
battle with armed war vessels when
ever opportunity arose. 1t was while
in command of vessel in this conflict
that the Marylander, Joshua Barney,
won everlasting renoun by capturing
the British General Monk, which
was better manned and better equip
ped than Barney's vessel. The
General Monk" had once been the
General Washington, which had
been captured by Admiral Arbuthnot
and placed in the British service.
Barney restored the old name, and
with it defeated a British privateer in
a naval duel in the West Indias. On
account of the Maryland privateers,
Baltimore was alluded to by British
merchants and press as "nest Of
pirates"
Without the aid of the Maryland
privateers, the outcome of the war
would have been in doubt.

SCOOPS COLUMN
By Scoops Assistant
(Scoop being overcome with heat this
week)

This is sort O. between seasons on
the mountains. According to the
usual reckoning Spring is here. But
really Old Probabilities has been cut
ting up something scandalous during
the past week and few of the expert
gardeners, who had it in their minds
to beat the other fellow to it when it
came to producing early vegetables,
are having the doubtful pleasure of
putting in the second planting of
beans, as Mr.. Frost silently stole in
the other night and harvested the first
crop. The damage, however, was
slight, and from press reports no
heavier than in other sections of the
country. Cottages are being opened
for the summer, lawns trimmed,
flowers and shrubbery planted, many
houses are being painted, and Jake
and Nelse have (about) completed the
bridge of sighs at Scoops Lovers Re-
treat. We called at The Republican
office to see if any of the force could
give us an item that would be inter-
esting for this column. AS is usual
in printing Office, they knew nothing
Ben was back in his corner hunched
over his linotype trying to work and
at the same time keep his watchful
eye on the force, smoking his usual
Ell Ropo cigar; Nose, with his plumb
line and level, was setting up job
for Pittsburgh concern; George was
hustling for copy and looking for the
Sunday School lesson for Nose; Grace
was reading proof and Marie was ap-
parently hunting for something she
had lost in the type case. Everyone
is really too busy to make news.
