Death of Pirate
Duly Reported
BOSTON. May 19 — (U.R)— Three
dispatches stretched over 200 days
were required to give Boston read-
ers a full news account of the
death of Captain Edward Teach,
America’s public enemy No. One,
230 years ago.
But the slow reporting didn’t
hamper the sale of America’s only
newspaper, the Boston News Letter,
and readers eagerly snapped up
copies for details about the no-
torious pirate ’’Blackboard’’ whose
14 wives were the only ones who
hated to see him die.
"Fatally wounded by five pistol
balls and 20 dismal cuts from
swords, a savagely fearless, cruel,
whimsical giant, breathing liquor
fumes and strong language, stag-
gered drunkenly and fell to the
deck, dead at last,” the first ac-
count reported.
"Eager hands hacked off the
great hairy head, worth 100 Eng-
lish pounds, and tied the grim
trophy to the bowsprit; the burly
frame was tossed unceremoniously
overboard."
This account, was revised some-
what 100 days later after a colonial
newsman gathered more from wit-
nesses who saw the pirate die.
Describing how, after his sword
broke, Lieutenant Robert Maynard
began firing his pistol at the
pirate as one of his men hacked
away with a sword, the new ac-
count told how a third man stepped
in for the final blow.
‘One of Maynard's men being
a Highlander, ingaged Teach with
his broad Sword, who gave Teach
a cut on the neck.
'Teach saying well done lad, the
Highlander replyed, it is not be
well done. I’ll do it better, with
that he gave him a second stroke,
which cut off his head, laying it
flat on his shoulders.”
CACTUS GROWS UP
BOONE. Iowa—(U.R)—Mr. and Mrs.
Jeff Hoffman belive their 33-year-
old Christmas cactus, measuring
five feet across, is one of the largest
potted plants of its kind in ex-
istence. When they were given the
plant 33 years ago it could have
been placed in a shoe box. Now
they keep it in a cream separator
bowl.
SHEEP GET MOUNTAINS
FORT WORTH, Tex.—(U.R)—Port
Worth zoo officials couldn't take
their Aoudads (Barbary sheep) to
their native habitat, the mountains,
so they did the next best thing
and moved the mountains to the
sheep. A 60-foot mountain casting
some $15,000 was built, separated
from spectators by a moat.

Researcher Seeking
Cheaper Housing
COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 19—(U.R)
—A housing research project seek-
ing to achieve a 20 percent cut in
present housing costs has been set
up at Ohio State university.
Professor Galen F. Oman, di-
rector of housing research at the
engineering experiment station,
said the 20 percent cut could be
achieved through standardization
of materials, reduction of parts
and man-hours of work. He said
it probably could be done by im-
proving "traditional" home huild-
ing procedures through better use
of materials and streamlining con-
ventional construction methods.

Luck Cuts Pensioner
Off Old-Age Payroll
SACRAMENTO, Calif., May 19
—(U.R)More than a year ago, 68-
year-old George Harnden found a
wad of bills amounting to $3,800
in a money belt while searching
for kindling near his shabby
trailer home.
County officials took the money
in custody for 12 months pending
claims by the loser. No one claimed
it.
So the county turned the money
back to Hamden as the finder. But
at the same time, the county cut
down its monthly overhead
Harnden was an old-age pen-
sioner. California law denies as-
sistance to any elderly citizen’
worth more than $1,500. The
county delivered Harnden his wind-
fall, along with notice that he was
cut off the pension rolls until he
reduced his capital below the legal
maximum.
