Even as recently as 1815 rest- |} less souls who had smelled the biped of abttle and felt the intoxication of danger became loath to settie down into the peaceful ways of men .and commerce, and chose the wide seas as an asylum because they refused to live under the law,” says a bulletin of the National Geographic Society from its ‘Washington, D. C., headquarters. “Beside the broad oceans which of- fered infinite chance for escape there have always been the island-dotted areas which furnish excellent lurking places from which these exponents of absolute freedom might direct their efforts and to which they might take their quarry for examination and long division among them, The Greek Arch- ipelago, the Barbary coast, the East In- dies, the China shores and the Span- ish Main, within the shadow of our own doors, have been pirate bases for centuries and given to the world a wealth of stories.of breathless inter- est. “In ancient times these sea robbers off the coast of Greece, Italy, and Asia Minor with their thousands of light, swift vessels, or ‘sea miece’ as they were called, ‘taxed’ merchant ship- ping so heavily that they light® and rightly termed their base of operations the ‘Golden Gwf.’ They flaunted their Black Flag in the face of mighty Rome, which remained impotent against them until Pompey with al- most unlimited resources at his com- mand curbed their operations. . “Ferdinand and Isabella unwittingly in their decision to drive the Moors from Spanish soil, iet loose upon the world and particularly upon Spanish shipping, then at tne nelght of its pride, a fearful horde of daring and un- scrupulous avengers. “In the early days of Mosiem power one of the Kalifs wrote to his general and asked him what the sea was like. The general answered ‘The sea is a huge beast which silly folk ride like worms on logs.’ Consequently the Ka- 1if gave orders that no Moslem should voyage upon it, but they soon learned that they must conquer it if thay were to hold their own among other people, and they subsequently furnished some of the most audacious and picturesque of tha pirate figures. - “Two of the most daring and in- genious pf these.were the Barbarossa brothers.” ‘Red Beard' terronized the iterranean world from Constanti- nople to the Pillars of Hercules. The excellent harbors and the island hid- ing places made it possible for him to defy the fleets of England, Italy, Spain and Holland, to levy tribute on all vessels that passed over the highway, to capture the richly laden Papal gal- leys bound for Rome in Moslem defi- ance of Christendom and chain the Christians to their oars. In 1510, at that time notorious and immensely wealthy he changed the base of his operations to the island of Jerba, off the coast of Tunis, where the Fates ceased to smile so kindly upon him. After many hard-fought battles and vicissitudes of fortune he fell before the forces of Charles V of Spain near Tremizan on African soil.
