FLYING DUTCHMAN
TURNED TO FREEBOOTING
DECEMBER 25 OF THE
YEAR OF OUR LORD 1724
- None may know the name
Jeremiah Johnson Tecker, but all
fear Shorty Leg, born at Cork. He was 14
years old when he freed himself from
the Shark's manacles, turned two
cannons loaded with grapeshot at the
captain's cabin and fired. The recoil
whipped off one of his legs.
- In 1717, he was found and
brought aboard the Jolly Roger by One
Eyed Jack, after drifting for two weeks
on a makeshift raft.
- Using a steel cooking pot and the
sun's rays, he had taken the salt from
the sea water, thus having water to
drink. He knocked the fish on the head
with his peg-leg. Thereafter, it became
his weapon of choice.
- Taken on as ship's surgeon.
Trivia[]
