Charleston, D.S. 1p.and end.by T.Jefferson with a statement on U.S.policy on slavery. Presented by Morris Duane; Nov. 26, 1963. The Semiramis was one of South Carolina merchant Samuel Grove's slave ships that was involved in the legal slave trade to Charleston in 1807. The Semiramis was captured on December 15, 1807 off Cape Maize (the straights between Cuba and Florida) by the Le Reparateur. This vessel was a privateer that was apparently owned by a Spanish subject but operated under a letter of marque issued by General Louis Ferrand - the commander of French forces on the Eastern half of the island of Hispaniola, then waging the final phases of the Haitian War for Independence. The Le Reparateur brought the Semiramis and her cargo of enslaved individuals to Santiago, Cuba, where the individuals were sold into slavery and the proceeds of the sale (apparently $126,000) awarded to the owners of the privateer.

Memorialist Grove is seeking help with a claim involving an "illegal seizure of his ship and her cargo of 220 slaves by a privateer commissioned by General Ferraud of St Domingo", but owned by Pierre La Port of Cuba. His claim is that the slaves were sold, but with the help of American consul Maurice Rogers, "the funds arising from the sale have been held from the captors and deposited in the chest of the Spanish Government." Grove is asking Madison for the US Gov't to intervene and recover the funds from the sale of the slaves, and seeks damages from the privateer as well. "Since the owner of the Privateer is a Man of larger Fortune". and a note by Th[omas] Jefferson, as president, that "The government of the U.S. will not make itself an accomplice in...selling them in slavery.
