The Knight of Malta
The travellers who now sail along the picturesque coasts within the district of the Bouches-du-Rhonethe peaceable inhabitants of shores perfumed by the orange-trees of Hyres, or the curious tourists, whom steamboats are continually transporting from Marseilles to Nice or to Gnesare perhaps ignorant of the fact that two hundred years ago, under the flourishing administration of Cardinal Richelieu, the seashore of Provence was, almost every day, plundered by Algerian pirates, or other robbers from Barbary, whose audacity knew no bounds. Not only did they capture all the merchant vessels leaving port,although these ships were armed for war,but they landed under the cannon even of the forts, and carried away with impunity the inhabitant whose dwellings were not adequately armed and fortified. These depredations increased to such a degree that in 1633 Cardinal Richelieu instructed M. de Sguiran, one of the most eminent men of that time, to visit the coast of Provence, for the purpose of ascertaining the best means of protecting them from the invasion of pirates. We will quote a passage from the memoir of M. de Sguiran in order to give to the reader an exact idea of the scenes which are to follow. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
