William Kidd quotes
My lord, I will tell you what the case was. I was coming up within a league of the Dutchman, and some of my men were making a mutiny about taking her, and my gunner told the people he could put the captain in a way to take the ship, and be safe.
William Kidd
This ship was a league from us, and some of the men would have taken her, and I would not consent to it, and this Moore said I always hindered them making their fortunes. Was that not the reason I struck him? Was there a mutiny on board?
William Kidd
I had no money nor friends to prepare for the trial till last night.
William Kidd
If you will take her, you may take her, but if you go from aboard, you shall never come aboard again.
William Kidd
I have been sworn against by perjured and wicked people.
William Kidd
I do not care so much for the death of my gunner, as for other passages of my voyage, for I have good friends in England that will bring me off for that.
William Kidd
