LAST SLAVE SMUGGLER SHIP 1860 CLOTILDA WHO OWNED IT?

This is the Whig interpretation of slave shipping.

Pinning it on a wealthy landowner and shipbuilder from Mobile......a Southerner, when the slave trade had overwhelmingly been done by Northern shipping and trading companies for centuries, including smuggling after 1808.

See, merely as a way of seeing how much is not explained,

Act Prohibiting Importation of Slaves, Wikipedia

Most history accounts in Wikipedia are somewhat to very whig Interpretation accounts. Very typical.
