The Legends and Ruthless Feats of Bully Hayes

The article recounts Bully Hayes a notorious 19th century buccaneer known for piracy and lawlessness across the Pacific. It covers his ascent aboard the Leonora, his fearsome reputation, brutal tactics against traders, and a dramatic escape from a British warship via a quick-night voyage to Frisco. It details his subsequent wrecks, escapes, and travels to Kusai Gaum Hong Kong and Shanghai as he rebuilt and expanded his illicit operations.

Pirate Hayes and the Hong Kong to Sydney Voyage

An 1880 tale recounts Bully Hayes, the brigantine buccaneer, profitable trips to Hong Kong and Sydney smuggling Chinese aboard. A staged distress grab enabled a transfer to a passing steamer, with Hayes sailing on, later facing reports of consequences and a disputed burial in Jalalt. The piece also notes advertising value and early wireless crime tech from Scotland Yard.
