    Description

    The early years of the Nine Years War saw dozens of Privateering Commissions handed out to ships intended to raid West African slaver outposts. One of those ships, Amity under Captain Thomas Tew, chose to ignore that commission and sail instead for Adam Baldridge's pirate haven at St. Mary's.
