Abstract
A first biography of a St. Kitts antislavery free coloured activist who campaigned for the twin objectives of free coloureds' civil rights and slave emancipation. Cleghorn's service as Stipendiary Magistrate, Member of the Assembly, and finally president and senior member of Council of Nevis casts light on both the possibilities available to well-connected ‘qualified’ free coloureds and the persistence of racial prejudice in post-emancipation St. Kitts and Nevis.
