able to get close enough to board but the crash of cannon was Incessant and there was no lack of courage in either vessel Deloe himself paced his deck giving orders helping the wounded and occasionally manning a gun with a fine disregard of danger that encouraged his crew to superhuman efforts BETTER ARMED Cerberus was a larger ship and better armed than the Margaretta but the pirates were more skillful In maneuvering They came about and delivered a broadside - immediately after the Cerberus had wasted one and their fire was reserved always until there was a chance to place the shot where it would do the most damage After three hours of incessant cannonading the Cerberus blew up with a tremendous report that was heard in the city of Halifax One hundred barrels of powder that was being taken to the naval station at Halifax added to the force of the explosion of the ship's magazine Many of the men thought the captain had been rash in fighting such a well armed ship as the Cernt berus and it was that the outcome of the battle was not profitable for the pirates The captain's judgment was impugned privately by groups of the men and life was never again altogether bright

the undercurrent of dissatisfaction among the men and appeared not to blame the boys for the conclusions He blamed him self but his nature was sadly depressed by the attitude of the men A course was laid for the Delaware coast and several rich American and British ships were taken But there was uneasiness in the atmosphere The men who had voted to quit pirating before this cruise began were a leaven of discontent in the crew and kept saying that the good luck couldn't last long in these waters since the alarm had been spread and warships were on the lookout The alarm of the men was justified by the event A British sloop of war spied the Margaretta off the Delaware coast and ran her down in a fog There was no battle Captain Dennet of the sloop called upon Captain Deloe to surrender The pirate asked for 15 minutes In which to consult his crew The consultation was over In five minutes PRIDE WOUNDED Deloe said: "I know that you boys have doubted mv right to rule von sinpp

thereupon summoned all hands on deck and himself hauled down the black flag "My men" he said "we are all prisoners of Captain Dennet Your personal safety is guaranteed "I hope you will all carry out your intention of returning to 'the land for the rest of your days As for myseff I fear my ancestors will not permit me to : leave the sea" Wrapping the black flag dramatically about him he stepped to

An order was sent out and two cruisers activities began hunting for the Margaretta On his next trip up the coast Deloe had wind of the naval activity nd cut a very wide arc oceanward away from the American coast He captured a few prizes nevertheless and took them along with him to Halifax where cruisers were less likely to interfere with pirating at that time CAREFUL AUDIT When Deloe had been out three years on the ac- count he had a settlement with his crew A careful audit showed that each member of the crew had received $4000 plus board lodging clothing medical care and a little pocket money from time to time Also everybody had had a great plenty of the best wine and liquor All this amounted to far more than any of these men could have earned at any honorable occupation and you must remember that $4000 in as much subsistgold would buy at least four times ence in those days as it would ' purchase in an American city today So' these pirates were rather well-to-fellows in their day Deloe himself had stored away about ten times as much" as a common seaman under him which was considered a pretty fair division of spoils There was some talk of disbanding the expedition then but the majority voted to make another cruise and the majority ruled the council Had Captain Deloe gone ashore at the end of his three years' period of pirating he could have lived in a more lordly manner than an American with a capital of $150000 can live today taking into consideration the difference in values of modes of spending SPIRITS HIGH But the last cruise was started with high spirits all around Every man promised himself and his companions that at the end of this adventure he would settle down far from the sea and never again ride on salt water This outfit should be one that would never contribute a spectacle to Execution Dock The English ship Cerberus carrying naval stores to Halifax was the first ship encountered on the cruise She was well armed and refused to sur- " render" do Now Captain Deloe fought his hardest battle K was just outside the harbor of Halifax It Neither side -
