Outrage On The Trent
25th January 1862: Lord Lyons (left) reaches Washington and hands American Secretary of State William Henry Seward (1801 - 1872) a communication from British Foreign Secretary Earl Russell on the matter of the 'Trent'. Early on in the American Civil War, the British ship 'Trent' had been stopped by a Federal warship and two of her passengers, Confederate envoys James Mason and John Slidell were removed. This violation of a neutral power very nearly led to the outbreak of war between Britain and the United States.
