释义 |
John Prie (died 1727) was a minor pirate in the Caribbean. HistoryIn 1727 Prie and some associates staged a mutiny aboard the Dutch-flagged ship Young Lawrence during a cruise in the West Indies. Prie murdered the Captain and declared himself Master of the ship.[1] The mutineers were caught and tried in London. Prie tried to frame fellow sailor John Ashley for the murder, who responded with a profanity-laced tirade.[1] Prie was convicted for both murder and piracy and sentenced to hang.[2] He was hung at Execution Dock, then gibbeted[3] in chains opposite the town of Woolwich in July 1727.[4] See also
