1843 Proceedings of the Citizens of the Borough of Norfolk on the Boston Outrage, in the case of the runaway slave George Latimer. Latimer was a
slave who had escaped to Boston, was discovered and incarcerated in a Boston jail until his freedom was purchased; the proceeding determined that the
slave owner's rights had been "invaded." Included were documents from both Virginia and Massachusetts. Of note, various abolitionist groups and
policy, as well as social unrest, developed as a result of this case. See LLMC # 23282 and 23284 for related documents. (Digitized from a microfilm copy
of title originally held by the Library of Congress).
