SIDE and France and Spain the other the right of
English subjects to navigate the American without
being subject to search mentioned, though it
had been the first Of the war; and the basis of the
attacks made upon Wapole's ministry. And in the
equally famous treaty at Ghent in 1914 between Great
Britain and the United States, mention was made by
either side of the claim of maritime rights that had orig
mated the war between the two countries We meet
with an amusing instance of 'todgng" in Wades Brit

II could compel her. for various lst there

If Great Britain should the practice of impress
