A propos de cet article

Folio (11.25 inches). 6 Victoria, Chapter 15. Caption title, pages 165-180. Engraved Royal coat of arms. Neatly extracted from a bound volume and expertly mended. This Act provided formal consent to the Treaty signed on 16 November 1840 between Great Britain and the Republic of Texas by which Britain recognized the Republic of Texas as an independent nation. The Treaty established an agreement between the two parties to suppress the African slave trade by declaring such trade as piracy. British or Texan merchant vessels discovered by either nations war ships to be carrying African slaves were subject to capture and adjudication of their masters, crew, and accomplices. African men, women, and children found on board who were destined for slavery were to be given their freedom and immediately delivered to the nearest Texan or British territory. However, slavery continued to be lawful in the Republic of Texas, in connection with the slave trade that existed prior to the 1840 Treaty. The Treaty of 16 November 1840 for the suppression of the African slave trade is reproduced in the Act on pages 165-172, together with Annex A (being a Warrant to visit Merchant Vessels suspected of being engaged in the African Slave Trade) on pages 172-173, Annex B (being Instructions to Cruisers) on pages 174-176, and additional details relating to the agreement on pages 177-180. The Treaty was nullified in 1845 when the Republic of Texas was annexed by the United States.…
