A STORY OF PIRATES. I had run away to sea on a vessel bound from Liverpool to Shanghai, and had left her on arrival. I found that the captain of the Silver Crown, one of the company's traders, was an old friend of my father's, and so it came about that I took service in the company under him, with the rating of cabin boy. The schooner carried a dozen muskets, a lot of boarding pikes and half a dozen cutlasses as an armament, but everything was boxed up and stored away, if not forgotten. Capt. Wharton had been in the service for six years and had never met with any trouble. When we got away it was with orders for the Philippine islands, among which the company had many resident agents who collected products. Our course was to the southeast, to pass between Formosa and the Loo Choo Islands, and we had made the run thus far without incident when one day about noon a junk rigged native craft, which doubtless came from some port in Formosa, intercepted us to the eastward of that island. We were about thirty miles off shore when she halted us. She claimed to be short of water, owing to an accident; but this, as we afterward came to know, was only an excuse. When she learned that we were bound to the Philippines she had three passengers to transfer. They were three natives of Formosa, who were going down there to find a colony, and would pay liberally for a passage by the schooner. I am only giving you the gist of what was urged in excuse. We lay to for a couple of hours, and I heard only a part of what was said. It did not seem to strike Capt. Wharton or Mate Williams as queer or suspicious, and after haggling over terms for a while the three natives were transferred to our decks and the vessels separated. Then I had time to look the strangers over, and I was not long in concluding that I did not wish for an intimate acquaintance. They were a tough looking trio, and the cook had scarcely set eyes on them before he declared that we had made a great mistake in taking them aboard. We had no accommodations for them at, and as the schooner was in ballast they had agreed to occupy the hold. I took an early opportunity of communicating my suspicions to the captain, but he laughed at me in a good mature way. I tried the mate, but he saw nothing to arouse distrust. It was singular, however, that given me such bleu, but they cut and hacked him until he lost his hold and fell to the deck. His body was thrown overboard, deck and cabins cleansed of blood stains and about sundown the schooner, with twenty-five men, was headed for the Philippines. The rest of the gang, numbering seven or eight, followed with the native craft. I boiled a large quantity of meat and got the best supper possible, and was glad to find that no one gave me any attention. We had a brisk wind all night and during the next forenoon, and at about 3 o'clock we reached an anchorage on the east side of the main island and within a quarter of a mile of the beach. The native craft passed us and entered the mouth of a river. From what I could gather she was going to bring out men and cannon to the schooner. A hunt was made through the schooner for gun carriages, and the discovery of the small arms seemed to put the follows in good humor. There was about $2,500 in gold aboard the cabin, and this was counted out and divided pro rata, or in some other satisfactory manner as we lay at anchor. Then I was ordered to draw a pallet of wine from a cask in a sort of lazaretto or store room reached from the galley. The cook might have known of the presence of the wine there, but I did not. I had never looked into the place. There was a tin pin holding about ten quarts in the galley, and this I filled and carried to the main hatch, with several glasses, and everybody proceeded to help himself. Now that we were at anchor all discipline had ceased, and one man was as good as another. They were powwowing all over the schooner and perfectly at home. The wine must have tickled their palates mightly, for a second painful was soon demanded. It was while I was drawing it that I noticed the barrel had no bung in it, and I wondered why the whohad not soured. I retired to the galley as soon as I had filled the second order, and for half an hour there was a good deal of loud talk and laughter. All of a sudden, while I was reflecting on the situation, and perhaps crying a bit in my sorrow and anxiety, it struck me that things were wonderfully quiet. I looked out of the galley to see half a dozen figures lying on the deck, and later on, when I had summoned courage to walk the length of the schooner, I found every man aboard apparently sound asleep. Their breathing was labored, but I supposed this was the result of too much drink. The night had come down dark and gusty, with the wind directly above them. O. ah, let me cold on the chest?

I tried the mate, but he saw nothing to arouse distrust. It was singular, however, that every man of the crew outside of the two officers was satisfied that there was something wrong with the trio. While their excuse was reasonable enough, the looks and actions of the men were suspicious, and it was plain to all that they were sailors. They let us all severely alone the captain and the cook, and I called it to mind afterward that while one interested the former the other two were occupied with the latter. I could "chin-chin" a bit and the cook could speak a little English, and so we managed to understand each other pretty well. Three days after the men came aboard "Slop-Slip," as we called the cook, assured me with very serious face that the strangers were evil-minded men, who had planned to capture the schooner. They had asked him to join them, and he had refused. I posted off to the captain with this news, and he greeted it with contempt. We were getting well down toward the northernmost island of the group, when something happened which should have opened the captain's eyes. The leader of the three borrowed the glasses and went up to the creeestrees of the mainmast and took a long look around. We saw the sailor in his every move, and he had not been down an hour when a native craft came creeping up from the south, bows on to us. She had a free wind, while we had been beating down all the fore-noon. We were at this time forty or fifty miles to the northward of the group, with a beautiful afternoon and a smooth sea. Half an hour after the native craft had been sighted, one of the natives and the captain retired to the cabin. Five minutes later the native showed his head above the deck and called to the mate, who had just come on watch. He disappeared down the companionway, and at the same time I entered the forecastle to look for something wanted. I was down there about five minutes. I heard no particular row on deck, but when I reappeared I was struck dumb by the spectacle. One of the natives was at the wheel, and was bringing the schooner into the wind to lie to. The decapitated bodies of the two Americans and the cook were lying amidships, while the two Swedes were at the foremast cross-trees. Not a shout had been raised nor a cry uttered. The work had been done with terrible rapidity and in silence. As I reached the deck one of the natives came forward with a bloody creeose in his hand and called me "good boy" and said I should not be hurt. He left me sitting on the windlass so scared and weak that I could not stand, and then assisted his companions to lower the sails. When this had been accomplished gallery as soon as I had filled the second order, and for half an hour there was a good deal of loud talk and laughter. All of a sudden, while I was reflecting on the situation, and perhaps crying a bit in my sorrow and anxiety, it struck me that things were wonderfully quiet. I looked out of the galley to see half a dozen figures lying on the deck, and later on, when I had summoned courage to walk the length of the schooner, I found every man aboard apparently sound asleep. Their breathing was labored, but I supposed this was the result of too much drink. The night had come down dark and gusty, with the wind directly off shore, and as the sleepers continued to lie quiet some strange ideas came to me. I was tempted to take one of their knives and begin killing, but I doubted my nerve. The yawl was at the davits, and I planned to lower it and let the breeze carry me out to sea. I held to this idea for a few minutes, and then surrendered it for another. I would swim ashore and hide in the forest. I had to abandon that scheme as well, for I saw at a glance that the tide was running out strong. I was wondering if I should not start a fire in the forecastle or cabin when I discovered that the craft was under way. She had her light anchor out and had been tugging heavily under tide and gust. The chain had ground off against some sharp-edged rock or the pin had slipped from a shackle. It was probably the latter case, as I heard a splash as of the end of the chain falling from the hawse hole. She drove off stern first and then, as she began to swing about, she stepped softly back to the wheel, put it over to get her off, and then extinguished the two lanterns on deck and the lamp in the cabin. I am not boasting of my nerve in stepping over the sleepers to do this work or of my sagacity in getting the idea. I was working like one in a dream and could hardly have identified myself. What occurred between the time I put out the lights and daylight next morning I never can clearly remember. The schooner took care of herself for any effort of mine, and I think I went into the galley and crept behind the stove. At least I crawled out of that contracted space soon after daylight, in response to a call. I suppose I was called to prepare breakfast for the pirates, but I was no sooner out of the galley than I saw a large ship hove to a quarter of a mile away, while one of her boats, with five men in it, was alongside the schooner. I must have looked and acted like a stupid; for as a couple of men came over the rail one of them gave me a hearty shaking and growled out: "You idiot, can't you get your mouth open?" There were twenty-five men lying on the decks and in the cabins sound asleep. No Dead! Every one of them dead and cold, and I only living thing aboard. It took some time to explain matters and get at all the particulars, but with what I could tell them and what they could see it finally became plain to all. That barrel of wine had been dosed with some deadly drug. The cook must have done it previous to the attack, or she bung had been left out by another and some poisonous reptile had crept in to die. No one could tell for certain, but the drinks... wheel, and was bringing the schooner into the wind to lie to. The decapitated bodies of the two Americans and the cook were lying amidships, while the two Swedes were at the foremast cross-trees. Not a shout had been raised nor a cry uttered. The work had been done with terrible rapidity and in silence. As I reached the deck one of the natives came forward with a bloody creepe in his hand and called me "good boy" and said I should not be hurt. He left me sitting on the windlass so scared and weak that I could not stand, and then assisted his companions to lower the sails. When this had been accomplished they called to the Swedes to come down. The poor fellows began crying and lamenting and refused to descend. The natives picked up the bodies from the deck and tossed them overboard, and then descended to the cabin and brought up the bodies of captain and mate and served them the same way. Both had been killed by the one native who enticed them down. About the time the last body was flung over the rail the native craft drew alongside. She had thirty men on board, all of whom seemed to know our three passengers and their plans. There was great rejoicing over the capture of the schooner, and for a quarter of an hour no one paid me any attention. Then there was a hot discussion, a part of the gang seeming anxious for my life, but the result was that I was conducted to the cook's galley and given to understand that I was to do the cooking. Although our cook was a Chinese they did not spare him. What saved me was my youth, or they might have planned to cut my throat after I had served their turn. When my fate had been settled the Swedes were again ordered down. One of them descended, begging and pleading, but he was cut down the moment his feet touched the dock. The other refused to come down, and half a dozen natives ran up the foremast shrouds with knives in their hands. Before they could reach him the sailor made his way hand over hand along the triantic stay to the mainmist. His feat was greatest with applause, but others ascended, and there was no longer any hope for him. The poor fellow made the best defense posi- "You idiot, can't you get your mouth open?" There were twenty-five men lying on the decks and in the cabins sound asleep. No Dead! Every one of them dead and cold, and I the only living thing aboard. It took some time to explain matters and get at all the particulars, but with what I could tell them and what they could see it finally became plain to all. That barrel of wine had been dosed with some deadly drug. The cook must have done it previous to the attack, or she bung had been left out by another and some poisonous reptile had crept in to die. No one could tell for certain, but the drinkers were all dead, and all had died in sleep. The ship was English, and the schooner was over thirty miles off the land. One of her majesty's men-of-war, assisted by a civil functionary, attempted an investigation, but nothing came of it. Our crew had been slaughtered and the schooner captured, but she had recaptured herself and brought off twenty-five corpses. Not a living man would ever be found among the islands who would acknowledge that he had ever seen the schooner, much less participated in her capture—New York City. Church Announcements.
