8. За тридцать лет до того, как президент Линкольн опубликовал свою Прокламацию об эмансипации, Великобритания отменила рабство во всех своих колониях. Естественно, это действие не было встречено дружелюбно рабовладельческими интересами в Америке, поскольку оно привело свободных негров к самому порогу южных штатов, и хотя это рассматривалось как угроза «своеобразной системе», споры с Англией возникли только после того, как был понесен реальный ущерб. В октябре 1841 года бриг «Креол» из Ричмонда с грузом из 135 рабов покинул Хэмптон-Роудс, направляясь в Новый Орлеан. Негры под предводительством Мэдисона Вашингтона убили одного из владельцев, захватили судно и направили его в порт Нассау. Там те рабы, которым не было предъявлено прямое обвинение в убийстве, были освобождены, и, хотя администрация требовала их выдачи, они не были отданы. Опыт «Креола» не был единственным, зафиксировано несколько случаев подобного характера. Эти факты показали опасность навигации по Багамскому каналу после 1833 года, и, по крайней мере, одной из причин предпочтения сухопутного маршрута вниз по долине Теннесси было ожидание избежать подобных происшествий. — (См.
