This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Phileas Fogg is a name synonymous with world adventure! Which statement below is false for the real-life inspiration behind this memorable character?
He was one of the first Americans to travel through the interior of Japan.
He traveled by train from Cleveland to San Francisco
He was born in Exeter, on the river Exe
He visited Baghdad
Answer: He was born in Exeter, on the river Exe
Explanation:
Phileas Fogg was the main character of the novel Around the World in Eighty Days (1872), by Jules Verne. This character was based on William Perry Fogg, a widely known American adventurer. William was born in Exeter, a town in Rockingham County, New Hampshire, in the United States; not on the city by the same name on the River Exe in England.
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.
