The Sabbath Recorder

April 20, 1854 (v. X245, p. 179)

 

Facsimile of Sabbath Recorder articleThe slave-hunters appear to be particularly busy in Wisconsin. At the last accounts they were in pursuit of a female, about 24 years of age, nearly white, and beautiful, who has been residing for some time in Kenosha. But the matter some how got out, and when the kidnappers arrived in that city, the bird had flown, having taken the express train for Canada several hours previous to their arrival.
