 LCRBMRP-T2301
The American Colonization Society was founded in the City of Washington in December 1816, by patriotic and benevolent gentlemen from various parts of the country, for the purpose of colonizing the free people of color of the United States.
In 1818, Messrs Samuel J. Mills and Ebenezer Burgess were commissioned by this Society to proceed by the way of England to the English settlements and other ports of the western coasts of Africa, to acquire information and ascertain whether a suitable territory could be obtained for the establishment of a colony.
From such materials it is in vain to expect that an industrious, intelligent, and enterprising community can possibly be formed; the thing is utterly impracticable, and they cannot but retard instead of advancing the prosperity of the colony.
