Proceedings Before the Privy Council, Against Compulsory Manumission, 1827 (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Proceedings Before the Privy Council, Against Compulsory Manumission, 1827 The Lord President. - We do not hear more than two counsel in the same interest; so far as you seek to set up a separate interest, it will be right that you should be heard distinctly for that interest. Mr. Hibbert. - I do not mean to set up any separate interest, my Lord; our interests are identically the same. The Lord President. - The case of the Proprietors and Mortgagees of Demerara and Berbice resting so completely on the same general grounds, they may be argued together. Do you mean to contend against the general principle of the Order, or the details so far as they may respect the Order made in Berbice, and the Order as it may be made in Demerara? Mr. Adam. - We mean to argue against the whole of the Order. The Lord President. - You mean to argue against the principle of the Order made in the one colony, and proposed in the other - the Trinidad Order, in fact. Mr. Adam. - Yes, my Lord, against the Trinidad order, as applied to Demerara and Berbice; we shall submit to your Lordship, that the circumstances of Demerara and Berbice are precisely the same, and that the same rule applies to both. Mr. Carr. - We shall argue it upon the general question; but that as to Demerara, there are circumstances which bear specially upon the expediency of the Order. We shall first contest the general principle as applicable to any colony, and, particularly that in this colony of Demerara, there are reasons why your Lordships should pause before you sanction such an Order.
