Pirates Past Noon

From: Trish Kurdziel (trishkri@yahoo.com) | Date: 2001-02-14 14:44:21 UTC-08:00
Bob "The Wiz", his daughters and the Kurdziels all got together to plant two
letterboxes at Goddard Park, in Warwick, RI.

The history of Rhode Island is closely tied to some of the most famous pirates
of the late 17th century. Famous pirate captains such as Blackbeard and Kidd
were known to frequent the area. Captain Kidd, in particular, was known to
hide his ill-gotten gains from the colonial government and his crew. It has
come to our attention that he might have hidden both a map and a treasure at
Goddard Park.

Happy hunting! Make sure that you bring your spyglass and cutlass, and keep an
eye out for the ghost of Captain Kidd.

Trish
