What statement was of an initial draft of the Declaration of Independence, but not part of the final version

Answer:  A statement against the evil of the slave trade.

Details:

In his original draft of the Declaration, Jefferson condemned the slave trade carried on by the British.  (Yes, Jefferson himself owned slaves he had inherited, but saw an eventual emancipation of slaves as something that would need to be done over time.)  The paragraph in the draft of the Declaration said that the King of England "has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its most sacred rights of life and liberty" by capturing, transporting and selling human beings from the distant land of Africa.  He called the "market where men should be bought and sold" an "execrable commerce" carried on by authority of the British crown.  ("Execrable" is an adjective related to excrement -- something extremely nasty.)  

Georgia and South Carolina would not join in voting for independence from Britain unless the paragraph about the evil of the slave trade was omitted, and so it was omitted from the final version.

Why was it necessary for the U.S. to take over (annex) Hawaii?
maria [59]
It was necessary for the United States to annex Hawaii because there were few lands left to colonize. By the time the United States worked out that it might be a good idea to expand her territories, there were very few countries left to claim. Most other countries had been claimed by Great Britain, France, Spain, Portugal and Germany. It also made sense to annex Hawaii as it is relatively close to the USA. The kingdom of Hawaii was originally an independent kingdom with its own ruling monarchy.

The correct answer is C) became victims of the Bataan Death March.

<em>Cannon Air Force Base is the home of the 27th Special Operations Group. During WWII, many of the men from the forerunner to this group, the 27th Bombardment Group, became victims of the Bataan Death March.</em>

After the Bataan Peninsula Battle on April 9, 1942, US Army troops and Filipino troops survivors were forced to march 65 miles to prison camps. After the victory of the Japanese Army, prisoners had to endure the long road to prisons, suffering the extreme heat conditions. Many died during the march. That is why the incident is known as the Bataan Death March.
