Description (What the record is about)
-
Folios 117-120. Board of Trade from Whitehall to Newcastle. Enclose their report upon the affidavit of the master of an English vessel plundered and carried away from Sta. Cruz by a French ship of war. They represent that if this matter be considered simply in the light of a seizure made by a French man of war on a vessel belonging to some of his Majesty's subjects; it would be undoubtedly looked upon as a breach of good friendship between the two nations in violation of the Treaty of Neutrality in America concluded in 1686, and of all treaties of peace and commerce since that time. But if the merit of this question is to turn upon the right which either his Majesty or the French King may have to the Island of Sta.Cruz, it will be early enough to enter upon that disquisition whenever the French shall avow this action, and attempt to justify it upon a pretence of right to the said island. The report.
