previous to the time of St. Peter Claver. During a great part of his ministry the Portuguese enjoyed all these contracts ; thus from 1595 to 1639 they possessed the sole monopoly. In 1701 we find mention of a contract with the French Royal Guinea Company, for the importation of 4800 every year. One article of this contract, which sounds somewhat ominous, is that the Company was bound to pay duty on the negroes who died after landing, whether they had been sold or not. This might have constituted a great temptation to the traders to throw sick ones overboard before arriving.
