The Report From A Select Committee. Appointed To Inquire Into The Origin, Causes And Progress - Softcover
Synopsis
The Report From A Select Committee. Appointed To Inquire Into The Origin, Causes And Progress, Of The Late Insurrection. Repr by Barbados House of Assembly. The present document records the Barbados Legislative Committee's inquiry into the slave uprising of 1816 on the island of Barbados, focusing on Saint Philip Parish and neighboring districts. Based on sworn evidence, depositions, and attached witness accounts, the report evaluates the uprising's causes and historical context. It concludes that the rebellion sprang from long-simmering discontent and expectations of emancipation fostered by discussions of registry and manumission, rather than from severe mistreatment alone. The committee stresses that information from English newspapers and sympathetic free coloreds fed hopes of freedom, which proponents of abolition later argued as a root cause. The document also includes the Proceedings, official resolutions, and detailed financial losses arising from the insurrection, offering a window into early 19th-century colonial governance and responses to slave resistance.
