Quarino was an African-born inhabitant of New Providence, Bahamas who was part of a slave revolt.
In 1734, after running away from his plantation, Quarino allegedly traveled to different settlements to recruit participants in a revolt. He was finally captured by soldiers, killing one with a knife.
During his interrogation, Quarino revealed a plot to kill all the white inhabitants of the island and take control of it. The first target was to be the acting Governor, Richard Fitzwilliam."Testing the Chains: Resistance to Slavery in the British West Indies" by Michael Craton pg 337"Saving Souls: The Struggle to End the Transatlantic Trade in Africans" by Hilary Beckles pg 34
