McLeod Case and Caroline Attack Debate in Washington Globe
The Washington Globe argues that New York authorities and Van Buren erred in McLeod’s case over the Caroline attack on Schlosser, Niagara River. It contends piracy cannot excuse acts committed within New York and Canadian waters, and criticizes British remonstrance as flimsy pretext for punishing a violent assault on U.S. territory.

British justification for McLeod and Caroline outrage
In December 1837 Canadian rebels seized Navy Island and Sir Francis Head ordered militia under Colonel McNabb to hold the opposite shore. McNabb later said he received orders to act defensively and avoid acts that could be deemed a breach of neutrality by the American government as the Caroline passage occurred.

War and piracy debate over Caroline affair and Gen Brown suit
In a broad critique, the piece rejects claims that McLeod and associates acted under British or Canadian orders during the Caroline incident, arguing no war existed and that only domestic laws applied. It notes a New Orleans suit for damages from the Gen Brown explosion, where owners were held liable for agent negligence, with a $2,500 verdict praised as just and a deterrent against steamboat mismanagement.
