as follows: "It is agreed that the United States and Her Britannic
Majesty shall, upon mutual requisition by them, or their ministers,
officers, or authorities, respectively made, deliver up to justice all
persons who, being charged with the crime of murder, or assault with
intent to commit murder, or piracy, or arson, or robbery, or forgery,
or the utterance of forged paper, shall seek an asylum, or shall be
found within the territories of the other; provided that this shall
only be done upon such evidence of criminality as, according to the
laws of the place where the fugitive or person so charged shall be
found, would justify his apprehension and commitment for trial, if the
crime or offence had there been committed, etc."
