This fascinating historical document provides a window into a seminal moment in American legal history: the Lemmon Slave Case of 1852. In this case, a Virginia couple attempted to bring their slaves into New York City, only to be sued by abolitionists who argued that slavery was illegal in the state. The court’s decision, which ultimately upheld the legality of slavery, had far-reaching implications for the future of America and the ongoing struggle for civil rights. A must-read for anyone interested in the history of slavery and its aftermath.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the 'public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
