Iron Jim Sallow


Iron Jim Sallow, one of the most enigmatic pirates of the North Pacific, is said to have buried a small treasure somewhere in the area that would someday become Seattle. According to legend, he created a map, which was stolen several years later by a member of his crew. Desperate to regain his map and exact revenge, he pursued the thief over land and sea for months before both of them disappeared, never to be seen again.

Accounts by members of his crew claim that he cultivated a friendly relationship with the native peoples of the Puget Sound area, trading with them and joining in their ceremonies and festivities.
