Wooden handle with hide lash and hide loop through opposite end for hanging storage. British politician Charles James Fox (1749-1806) oversaw a Foreign Slave Trade Bill that prohibited British subjects from contributing to the trading of slaves with the colonies of Britain's wartime enemies, thus eliminating two-thirds of the slave trade passing through British ports.
