NOTES
1. "Edward Teach or Edward Thatch (c. 1680 – 22 November 1718), better known as Blackbeard, was a
notorious English pirate who operated around the West Indies and the eastern coast of Britain's
North American colonies. ...Various superstitious tales exist of Teach's ghost. Unexplained lights
at sea are often referred to as "Teach's light", and some recitals claim that the notorious pirate
now roams the afterlife searching for his head, for fear that his friends, and the Devil, will not
recognise him...." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackbeard
