On this day in 1701 Captain William Kidd was executed for piracy. Kidd thought of himself not as a pirate but as a privateer working for the British and may well have singed the king of Spain’s beard. Kidd was, if anything, pretty small fry as far as piracy was concerned but because of the showy nature of his trial and execution, legends have sprung up about him being possessed of enormous amounts of pirate booty, which he would bury on treasure islands. In reality Kidd buried a very small amount of treasure once in such a haphazard half-arsed manner that it was easily unearthed and used as evidence against him during his trial. This hasn’t stopped his name being linked to the Oak Island Money Pit, which was, depending on who you believe, either a fabulously intricate way to hide a pirate treasure horde of more than £2,000,000 or an investor scam (or possibly both).
And now, the news:
