Pirates Carried Off Treasure After Fort Attack and Cuba Victory
The narrative describes Captain Hall's men on a raid against a fort near Porto Plate with dismantled cannons and a wealth seized. They secured treasure in Cuba, capturing two Spanish launches, driving one ashore, and recovering about 13 to 14 thousand pieces of eight. Hall reportedly sent two pieces of cannon and the owners’ share of treasure to Providence.
