Description

INSTRUCTIONS TO NAVAL COMMANDERS TO HALT SLAVE TRADE
Disbound government document, "Letter from The Secretary of the Navy, Transmitting Copies of the Instructions, Which Have Been Issued to Naval Commanders, Upon the Subject of the Importation of Slaves" (Washington: E. De Krafft), Jan. 19, 1819, 10pp. 8vo., containing a selection of orders issued to various naval commanders charged with interrupting the slave trade in the Atlantic. In part: "I hear, not without great concern, that the law prohibiting the importation of slaves has been violated in frequent instances, near St. Marys', since the gun boats have been withdrawn from that station. We are bound by law... to use our most strenuous efforts to restrain this disgraceful traffic, and to bring those who shall be found engaged in it to those forfeitures and punishments which are by law prescribed for such offenses..." The trans-Atlantic slave trade had been prohibited by the United States and Britain in 1808, but slaves were frequently smuggled to the Carribean and then to North America, under the guise of the domestic slave trade which had been allowed to continue. Pages are of uneven size, as printed, else very good.
