Pursuit and Capture of a Slave Ship in 1860 Atlantic
In August 1860 the USS Constellation pursued a suspected slave ship off the African coast. After a night-long chase at up to nine knots, the crew engaged with heavy guns and boarded the prize, freeing over 700 enslaved people. The narrative details the dramatic pursuit, combat, boarding, and the grim sight of the slave deck, ending with a chilling account of the captives and the crew’s relief and horror.
