- Image of the Signatures & Seals of British and American Negotiators of the Treaty of Ghent. Details of the treaty were finally completed and on Saturday, December 24th 1814 at three o'clock in the afternoon, the two commissions met at the British Chartreux, the former monastery where Napoleon had spent one of his honeymoons. At six o'clock with the carillon of St. Bavon chiming its Christmas message of peace and good will in the winter air, the eight men affixed their signatures to six copies of the "Treaty of Peace and Amity Between His Britannic Majesty and the United States of America."
