18. John C. Calhoun, Speech of Mr. Calhoun of South Carolina (N.p., [1840?]). (8 p.)


Speech in favor of a resolution that would prevent slaves being freed if the ship in which they were being transported from a port in a slaveholding state found it necessary to seek shelter from bad weather in a port located in a nonslaveholding country (e.g., Jamaica). (The collection has another copy of this speech in volume 91 [no. 9].)
