LOOT/ & ELMO scon WATSON The Utopian Pirate Republic 'J SOuNEIt hud Captain Misson and his lieutenant, Caraccloll, set out under the white flag for the strangest career of piracy in history, than they had a chance to put their policy of "piracy without tears" Into practice. They captured an English sloop, and after helping themselves to some rum and a few other articles which they needed, they let the amazed Britisher^ go without further trouble. In returri the English gave these strange pirates three rousing cheers at parting. After this, Misson sailed to the coast of Africa wherd he took a Dutch ship laden with gold dust and slaves. Such an opportunity could not be passed up, so Captain Misson gave his crew a long h.irangue on the evils of slavery. In fact, that became a regular part of his procedure. His captives were Invariably forced to listen to a longwinded sermon before they were released and sent on their way. That did not prevent his making his operations profitable, however, for these gentle pirates always helped themselves to whatever they liked In the cargoes of the ships they stopped. From one English vessel they took the sum of 60,000 pounds sterling. Misson next sailed to an Island In the Indian ocean to make his home. Here he married the sister of the dusky queen, while Caraccloll took for his bride her niece. After several years of pirating from this base, Misson transferred his men to a sheltered bay In Madagascar, where he established a colony on socialistic lines and named it Llbertatla. Everything was held in common and a form of government arranged with Misson a* "Lord Conservator." Caraccloll became secretary of state, and the famous Captain Tew, an English pirate, who Joined Mission was made admiral of the fleet. The council was made'up of the ablest of the pirates without discrimination as to race or color. There for many years this pirate Utopia where any gentle-souled pirates might have "some Place to call their own; and a Receptacle, when Age or Wounds had render'd them incapable of Hardship, where they inijilit enjoy the Fruits of their Labor, and go to their Graves in Peace," flourished. But eventually the hostility of the natives brought trouble down upon Llbertatla, and Misson and n few sur vlvors were forced to seek safety on board a ship. This vessel foundered In a hurricane and Misson and all oi the crew were drowned. <®. ittt. Wdtiri Newspaper Uatoa.)
