“The articles of Bartholomew Roberts' crew printed by Johnson (1724) gave 'Every Man ... a Vote in Affairs of Moment', two shares of a prize to the captain and quartermaster, 800 dollars from the public stock for the loss of a limb, and required quarrels to be settled ashore under the quartermaster.”
Context. Johnson says these were only 'some of Roberts's Articles', as the crew had thrown the original overboard.
