📅 15 Mart 1815 📍 Grenada

The St George’s Chronicle and Grenada Gazette reported that the governor directed weekly publication of the Loyal Grenada Rangers’ service returns. Later lists recorded enslaved people apprehended after escape. Enslaved men served in the Rangers, whose principal role included policing other enslaved people and maroon communities. The order made a coercive policing system more publicly visible while turning the press into part of the colonial surveillance network.
