House. Bill to compensate slave owners, 1852

1852 House bill which would compensate an owner of a slave who was executed for a capital offense. As part of a jury's duty after a guilty verdict,
it was to also assess the value of the slave; the owner would receive two-thirds of that amount following execution. (Digitized from a microfilm copy
