THE STOLEN SHIP. In the year 1800 I was one of the crew of the British survey brig Advance, which was surveying the islands to the south of the Sandwich group. Kingman shoal, Palmyra island and other shoals and islands had not been closely surveyed, and we were spending the summer in this work. The brig was a craft of 200 tons, and being a government vessel was under strict discipline. About the middle of September we were at Fanning island, when a heavy gale came up from the west, and we had to run for the open sea to the east. The gale struck us about 8 o'clock in the afternoon and hung to us until noon the next day. During this time we were running a little east of north and having all we could do, and when the gale broke we were at least 200 miles to the northeast of our island. It was midafternoon before we got the brig about, and she had scarcely been headed back when a whaleboat came down upon us from the northwest, and when we got her crew aboard we heard a very interesting story. There were eight of them—a first mate, two harpooners and five hands. All belonged to the British whaling bark Penrose, of Liverpool. Twenty days previously she had run into Honolulu and discharged half a cargo of oil and shipped three Portuguese sailors to replace hands who had been lost at sea. On leaving Honolulu she had cruised to the southward, taking a whale occasionally, and on the day the gale broke she lowered for whales about 200 miles north of the group we had been surveying. Three boats were down at once as the bark ran into a school. As the breeze was light only a shipkeeper was left aboard, and he was a sailor who was just recovering from a hurt. The three Portuguese were in the captain's boat, which made fast to a big bull whale within a quarter of a mile of the bark and was immediately struck and disabled, and the line had to be cut. Meanwhile the other two boats had gone to the eastward after the school, and they had no sooner made fast than their victim ran off at full speed. Owing to the direction of the wind the shipkeeper could not work down to the captain. His not cut her off. She would have shore on one side and us on the other. Each craft had all sail set. When within three miles of the bark we fired a gun for her to heave to, but not the slightest notice was taken of it. Our two pieces of ordnance were then shifted to the starboard side and loaded with solid shot. If the rascals refused to surrender they must take the consequences. Each craft held dead to its course, but again the bark proved her better sailing qualities. Instead of cutting her off as we hoped for, we were still a quarter of a mile away when she passed the point. The three Portuguese were shouting and cheering, while the white man was at the wheel. Orders were given to fire; and two solid shots went whizzing at her, but to pass over her without damage. We then fell into her wake and could not bring a gun to bear, and we had further mortification to see her walking away from us. The Portuguese ran up the American flag and dipped it three times, and our crew fairly danced in their indignation. The only thing we could do was to follow her, but we lost her early that evening and were all at sea as to where we should set eyes on her again. Three days later, having had only light breezes, we raised Enderbury island, which is the easternmost island of the Phoenix group. The wind had been fair for the bark to lay this course, and this group also offered the pirates a good refuge and a beautiful climate. We approached it from the west, ran into within two miles of the beach, and then worked slowly along the southern shore. The charts showed no haven of refuge on either the south or west shore, but located a bay on the north. We hoped to trap them, if they were there, by making a circuit of the island and coming upon them from a different direction unexpectedly. Next day we had to work up the west shore against a head wind, and night came again before we had fairly turned the corner and headed to the east. We came to anchor again, but such was the impatience of Mate Cummings and his men that they set off in their whaleboat to explore the coast in advance. Ten miles to the east they found the bark anchored in the bay laid down on the chart. She was within two hundred feet of the beach, her sails furled and the bark ran into a school. As the breeze was light only a shipkeeper was left aboard, and he was a sailor who was just recovering from a hurt. The three Portuguese were in the captain's boat, which made fast to a big bull whale within a quarter of a mile of the bark and was immediately struck and disabled, and the line had to be cut. Meanwhile the other two boats had gone to the eastward after the school, and they had no sooner made fast than their victim ran off at full speed. Owing to the direction of the wind the shipkeeper could not work down to the captain. His boat was a wreck, but was acting as a float to sustain the crew. In this emergency the three Portuguese offered to swim to the bark and return with a spare boat, and they were told to go. They reached the craft in safety, but had no sooner got aboard than the yards were trimmed, her head was brought to the south, and she sailed within 300 feet of the captain as she made off. The dark skinned rascals made no bones of the fact that they were running away with the ship. Indeed, they boasted of it, and derided the men hanging to the stoven boat. It was a heartless, cold blooded thing to do. The two other boats were five miles to the eastward, and it was an hour after the bark made off before the men cut loose from their dead whales to fathom the mystery. They found the wreck of the captain's boat, to discover that only one single man remained with it, the others having been pulled down by the sharks. By the time they had heard his strype the bark was more than hull down and just then the gale broke. The boats were laid head on to the sea and drifted slowly to the east, dividing their men so as to give each an equal show to live out the gale. During the night the second mate's boat was lost sight of and as it was never heard of again it must have been swamped. Had we been running a course the surviving boat could not have fetched us, but as we brought about she got the chance to do so. As soon as the story had been told our captain decided to go in search of the stolen bark. It was a question, however, whether she had outlived the gale. She must have received the full force of it, and being so short handed she was liable to disaster. The main question was whether she would soud or drift. We had adopted the former course, as the brig had a habit of flooding her decks when lying head on. The mate of the stolen bark, whose name was Cummings, felt certain that the Portuguese would let her drift. In that case we would have to cover a hundred miles of ocean to the westward before beginning to look for them. What did they want of the craft? What could they do with her? There was only one reasonable answer. They would run her down among the southern islands, find some safe spot to lay her away and then "have a good time." This meant eating, drinking, smoking and having no work to do. They would not dare to try a long voyage nor to put into any prominent port. Next day we had to work up the west shore against a head wind, and night came again before we had fairly turned the corner and headed to the east. We came to anchor again, but such was the impatience of Mate Cummings and his men that they set off in their whaleboat to explore the coast in advance. Ten miles to the east they found the bark anchored in the bay laid down on the chart. She was within two hundred feet of the beach, her sails furled and stowed, and was heard of before she was seen. The Portuguese were drunk, as they were singing and shouting so they could be heard half a mile away. The mate should have returned and reported the case, but he did not. He believed his party strong enough to recapture his craft, and he therefore pulled down to make the attempt. He did not surprise the pirates, as he hoped to, and when he tried to board her was driven back to his boat in great disorder, nearly every man being hurt by blows of capstan bars. It was nearly daylight before the boat returned to the brig, and as it was a perfect calm we decided to wait until daylight before making any further move. As day dawned there was every prospect of a continuance of the calm, and two boats, each containing eight armed men, were dispatched to get possession of the bark. Our first mate had charge of one and Cummings of the other, and I was in the first boat. Our instructions were to board at any sacrifice, but to spare the pirates for the gallows if possible. After a row of two hours we came to the entrance of the bay, and there was the bark before us. She had a snug anchorage and everything aloft was as tidy as you please. She wasn't over half a mile away, as it was not a deep bay, and we were no sooner in sight than we heard a cheer from her decks, followed by the boom of a cannon and the sound of a round shot, over our heads. In rummaging the vessel the men discovered an old 6-pound cannon which had lain in hold for many years. This they had hoisted out, loaded with a shot intended for the feet of a dead man, and fired from a carriage so poorly constructed that the gun dismounted itself. The bark lay astern toward us, as the tide was running out, and we pulled to board her on either bow. Captain and mate had both left revolvers aboard, and these were now used by two of the pirates. While we were sweeping up they killed two men and wounded a third, and a fourth man was wounded as we boarded. The Portuguese ran to the cabin for shelter, and we found the white sailor dead at the foot of the mainmast, they having clubbed him to death the night before. While we were planning to attack them in the cabin, they dropped from the windows to swim ashore. The alarm was raised in time for the boats to overhaul them, but one resisted so desperately that he had to be killed. The other two were brought aboard... of the stolen bark, whose name was Cammings, felt certain that the Portuguese would let her drift. In that case we would have to cover a hundred miles of ocean to the westward before beginning to look for them. What did they want of the craft? What could they do with her? There was only one reasonable answer. They would run her down among the southern islands, find some safe spot to lay her away and then "have a good time." This meant eating, drinking, smoking and having no work to do. They would not dare to try a long voyage nor to put into any prominent port. I was Mate Cummings' belief that the Portuguese would head for Christmas island, a hundred miles to the south of where we had been surveying, and the brig's course was accordingly laid. On the afternoon of the third day after picking up the boat we sighted the bark dead ahead. We were then not over twenty-five miles from the island. The stolen craft had evidently been taking things pretty easy. She was under short sail when we first escaped her, although the weather was fine and the breeze fair. The thieves had no fear of pursuit, and perhaps all were captains except the shipkeeper and would not obey each other's orders. We had her almost hull up when the fellows became suspicious, then they set everything below and aloft, and to our intense chagrin we discovered that the bark was a faster sailer than the brig. It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon when we sighted her, and as darkness fell she had gained a couple of miles on us. Having got the alarm it was hard to tell what they would now do, but after a long consultation our captain decided to round Christmas island and lay a course for Jarvis island. The bark was headed directly south when we last saw her. Next day at noon we were to the west of Christmas and running down on our course, when we suddenly discovered the bark on our starboard quarter, standing out from the southeast end of the island, where she had been hiding to let us pass. She had not seen us southwest, nearing directly or us, or to fall off and run dead to the west. We all looked to see her head into the wind and wait to be boarded, but the rascal had not thought of it. She suddenly shifted her course to the west, and hoping to cut her off we shifted our northwest. Each was now the leg of a triangle. It was plain from the start that we should be within a cable's length of how at the meeting point. Castoria For Infants and Children.
