Slave Transportation Regulation Bill Debated In Lords
Friday July 11 in the House of Lords a large ladies assembly prompted suspension of the standing order to clear the chamber. Earl Stankage moved the third reading of the Slave Transportation Regulation bill. The Lord Chancellor argued the bill’s consequences, deeming its humanity potentially ill advised, and the bill was read a third time and passed. It was then returned to the Commons by Sir William Dolben and others.
