To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The non-intercourse act of 1800 prohibits all commercial intercourse "between any person or persons resident within the United States, or under their protection, and any person or persons resident within the territories of the French Republic, or any of the dependencies thereof. " And declares that "any ship or vessel, owned, hired or employed, in whole or in part, by any person or persons resident within the United States, or any citizen or citizens thereof, resident elsewhere, " etc. , "shall... be forfeited, and may be seized and condemned. " A citizen of the United States, resident "elsewhere, " must mean a citizen resident in a neutral country. If Shattuck was such a citizen, the case is clearly within the statute. It is not necessary that the vessel should be regis- tered as an American vessel ; it is sufficient, if owned by a citizen of the United States : registering is only necessary to give the vessel the privileges of an American bottom. Nor is it necessary that she should have been built in the United States.
