Answer:

Explanation:

the excerpt is A Christmas Carol

by Charles Dickens (excerpt)

“Do you know the Poulterer’s, in the next street but one, at the corner?” Scrooge inquired.

“I should hope I did,” replied the lad.

“An intelligent boy!” said Scrooge. “A remarkable boy! Do you know whether they’ve sold the prize Turkey that was hanging up there?—Not the little prize Turkey: the big one?”

“What, the one as big as me?” returned the boy.

“What a delightful boy!” said Scrooge. “It’s a pleasure to talk to him. Yes, my buck!”

“It’s hanging there now,” replied the boy.

“Is it?” said Scrooge. “Go and buy it.”

“Walk-ER!” exclaimed the boy.

“No, no,” said Scrooge, “I am in earnest. Go and buy it, and tell ’em to bring it here, that I may give them the direction where to take it. Come back with the man, and I’ll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less than five minutes and I’ll give you half-a-crown!”

The boy was off like a shot. He must have had a steady hand at a trigger who could have got a shot off half so fast.

“I’ll send it to Bob Cratchit’s!” whispered Scrooge, rubbing his hands, and splitting with a laugh. “He sha’n’t know who sends it. It’s twice the size of Tiny Tim. Joe Miller never made such a joke as sending it to Bob’s will be!”

What happened to the rebel slaves at the end of the Amistad case?
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

B) They were free and allowed to return to Africa

Explanation:

On March 9, 1841, the Supreme Court ruled 7-1 to uphold the lower court's decision in favor of the African. They wrote that:

"There does not seem to us to be any ground for doubt, that these Negroes ought to be deemed free."

However, the court didn't order the government to provide funds for the return of Africans to their homeland. The new President at that time, John Tyler, refused to provide funds for them. The salvage rights for the ships were awarded to U.S Navy Officers who captured it. Due to such circumstance, the Africans had to raise money from scratch. In November 1841, 35 Africans saild from Newyork towards their homeland, aided by funds raised by United Missionary Society, which was a black group.
