Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book refutes accusations made against the Mauritian people in the British House of Commons. The government accused them of treason, disloyalty, and the illegal slave trade. The author uses evidence from official reports, including the results of a trial that acquitted the accused, to demonstrate that these claims were politically motivated and unjust. The author argues that British claims of Mauritian disloyalty are unfounded. The author presents a detailed account of a trial in which Mauritians were accused of plotting against British rule and shows that the charges were baseless. The author further argues that the Mauritians had in fact welcomed British rule and had cooperated with the British government in its efforts to abolish slavery on the island. The author concludes by appealing to the British Parliament to reject the accusations against the Mauritians and to uphold the justice of their cause.
