Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of Sir Samuel Romilly, Vol. 3 of 3: Written by Himself, With a Selection From His Correspondence Jan. 6th. I attended a meeting at Stephen´s with Wilberforce, Brougham, and Babington, to consider what measures it would be necessary to take, to make effectual the Act which has passed for the abolition of the slave trade. The most effectual measure appeared to all of us to be the establishing a registry for slaves in all the islands, and a law that every negro not registered should be free; and it was determined that an attempt should be made to procure an Act of Parliament for this purpose. 7th. Parliament met. The state of Bristol I find is this: It has been long agreed between the leaders of the Whig and Tory parties in that city not to interfere with each other in the election; but that each party should have its own member, who should be the person proposed by each of the two great political clubs which have been formed there. Mr. Bathurst is the Tory member, and it is intended that he should be re-elected. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
