Edward Teach, aka Blackbeard the Pirate, was killed by a British naval officer who had essentially been retained specifically to hunt him down.
Teach had been pardoned of piracy, but was widely believed to have started up again quietly.
Governor Alexander Spotswood of Virginia became concerned and decided to eliminate Blackbeard, even though Teach lived outside of Spotswood's jurisdiction.
Blackbeard operated in shallow coastal waters so it was difficult for larger vessels to engage him in battle. Two smaller hired sloops were therefore put under the command of Lieutenant Robert Maynard, with instructions from Spotswood to hunt down and destroy Blackbeard, offering a reward of £100, and smaller sums for the lesser crew members.
On 21 November 1718 Blackbeard was finally tracked down and killed aboard his ship after a fierce battle.
