Decree no. 4,835 of 1 December 1871 regulated a special register of enslaved people and children legally classified as freeborn under the September law. Registration could help administer a gradual transition, but it also gave officials and enslavers a tool to assert and document control. Errors, omissions, and local power shaped whose status the records recognized. The decree exposes a central tension in gradual emancipation: bureaucratic pathways to freedom could also prolong surveillance and labor claims.
