The Amistad was intercepted by U.S. navy officers and towed to port in New London, Connecticut where the Africans were held for trial in New Haven. Led by President Van Buren, the pro-slavery American government maintained that the Africans were Spanish property and should by returned to Havana to be tried for murder, but members of the fledgling abolitionist movement forced a series of trials to win their freedom, culminating at the… Read More

NO margin notes. Includes Ricord's report to Joel Parker, Governor of New Jersey, on the condition of the state's public schools. A substantial appendix lists reports by the various town superintendents in each of 21 counties from Atlantic to Warren. Since this report was published while the Civil War was still being fought, the section on "Schools for Colored Children" may be of some interest: "There is no section of the law nor any decision of the courts that deprives colored children of the advantages of public school instruction… it shall be the duty of the trustees of the several school districts to apply the… Read More
