#441 (the post to which you responded) contains not a word about the presence or lack thereof of Yankee captains in the slave trade.

It doesn't? Can you read the English language? From your #441: 'But you apparently made it up, just as you made up the statement that Yankee slave traders were active up into the Lincoln administration.'

To make sure that you would not try to weasel out of the allegations charged (just as you are attempting to do), in my reply #456, I documented slaves ships built by Yankees, slavers owned by Yankees, slavers registered to Yankees, slavers outfitted by Yankees, slavers departing from Yankee ports, slavers captained by Yankees, Yankee slavers caught after the commencement of hostilities, and the death of a Yankee slaver caught in the act, and hung for his crimes. The latter incidents were after Lincoln was inaugurated.

Those are historical facts. I even made sure they were readily available on the internet, just in case you couldn't find them in your historical "record".

Good day.
