Timmy: Yes on all counts, ...Ahoy Timmy and Denis!<br /><br />Timmy: Yes on all counts, of course. Pallache was obviously an unusual character but when you think about his virtual life long experience at sea (as a merchant he would have travelled a great deal), the privateering thing was probably a more "natural" step than it appears on paper.<br /><br />Denis: Thankee indeed for helping me find another interesting pirate that most people have no clue about. That's the good stuff!Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11730716060906158244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-45696815469941084882010-10-07T23:09:58.050-08:002010-10-07T23:09:58.050-08:00Glad I could point you in the direction of a figur...Glad I could point you in the direction of a figure this fascinating.houseinrlyeh aka Denishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548069611516508274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-62016423273362397682010-10-07T20:01:07.042-08:002010-10-07T20:01:07.042-08:00Ahoy, Pauline!

Well, one mans pirate is another mans privateer, right? <br /><br />It does seem pretty unusual (though not completely unprecedented) to take up privateering in your 60's... Pallache certainly seemed to live a full life, if not an exceptionally long one, Pirate Queen. <br /><br />And religion, as always, seems to be at the root of so much of these conflicts throughout history, just as it is today.Timmy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09902641426229272672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-43329746202211488452010-10-07T13:17:34.346-08:002010-10-07T13:17:34.346-08:00Ahoy, Charles!
