1773: Attack from shore on the Julie, bound for Saint-Marc (voyage 32281)

African

On a slaving voyage that ended at Saint-Marc in 1773, the Julie was attacked from the shore. The people aboard had been taken at a port the record does not name.

The record gives the numbers as: 250 people were embarked; 208 were landed.

Captain: Dubois, Guillaume. Flag: France. Recorded outcome, in the database’s words: “voyage completed as intended.”

Resistance is recorded only where a surviving document mentions it. The 571 such acts in the record are a floor. Silence in that column is silence in the archive. It says nothing about calm on the ship.
