Description
Deutsch: "Tod von Kapt. Ferrer, Kapitän der Amistad, Juli 1839."

Text unter dem Bild (freie Übersetzung): "Nachdem Don Jose Ruiz und Don Pedro Montez von der Insel Kuba 53 kürzlich aus Afrika importierte Sklaven in Havanna gekauft hatten, brachten sie sie an Bord der Amistad unter Kapt. Ferrer, um sie nach Principe, einem anderen Hafen der Insel Kuba, zu transportieren. Um ihre Freiheit zu erlangen und nach Afrika zurückzukehren, bewaffneten sich die afrikanischen Gefangenen etwa vier Tage nach Verlassen von Havanna mit Macheten und überwältigten den Kapitän und die Besatzung des Schiffs. Kapt. Ferrer und der Koch des Schiffs wurden getötet; zwei Besatzungsmitglieder entkamen; Ruiz und Montez wurden gefangen genommen."

Caption: "Don Jose Ruiz and Don Pedro Montez of the Island of Cuba, having purchased fifty-three slaves at Havana, recently imported from Africa, put them on board the Amistad, Capt. Ferrer, in order to transport them to Principe, another port on the Island of Cuba. After being out from Havana about four days, the African captives on board, in order to obtain their freedom, and return to Africa, armed themselves with cane knives, and rose upon the Captain and crew of the vessel. Capt. Ferrer and the cook of the vessel were killed; two of the crew escaped; Ruiz and Montez were made prisoners."
