Harper's Encyclopedia of United States History (ed. Benson Lossing), Amistad, case of the. (search)
Amistad, case of the. A Portuguese slaver landed a cargo of kidnapped Africans near Havana; a few days afterwards they were placed on board the Amistad to be taken to Principe. On the voyage the negroes, led by Cinque, captured the vessel, but killed only the captain and the cook. They then ordered the white crew to take the ship to Africa; but the sailors brought her into American waters, where she was seized by Lieutenant Geding. of the United States brig Washington, and brought into New London, Conn., Aug. 29, 1839. A committee, consisting of S. S. Jocelyn, Joshua Leavitt, and Lewis Tappan, was appointed in New York to solicit funds and employ counsel to protect the rights of the negroes. After a great struggle the court, through Justice Story, pronounced them free. Their return to Africa founded the Mendi mission.

It was accordingly resolved, with only the Niles' Register, 41.88; Life of Arthur Tappan, pp. 146-152. dissenting votes of Mr. Jocelyn and three other citizens (one a Virginian), by the Mayor, Aldermen, Common Council, and Freemen of the City of New Haven, that we will resist the establishment of the proposed College in this place by every lawful means.
