Georgia Judge Exposes Indian Law Debate and Press Attacks
In Clark County, Georgia, Judge EB Clayton urges enforcement of the removal act amid protests from northern states and clergy. He cites federal issues, defends state authority, condemns outside meddling, and pledges impartial law enforcement while appealing for public support. He contrasts Georgia with New York and warns of repercussions if the law is weakened. Meanwhile the West India Trade Proclamation opens U.S. ports to British vessels pending evidence of Britain opening Caribbean ports. The document outlines the open trade terms and repeals prior navigation acts once opened. The piece also covers a Norwalk Ohio temperance society forming with a constitution and officer elections.
