First Edition. (SEWARD, William) HALL, Benjamin F. The Trial of William Freeman, For the Murder of John G. Van Nest, Including the Evidence and the Arguments of Counsel, With the Decision of the Supreme Court Granting a New Trial, And an Account of the Death of the Prisoner, And of the Post-Mortem Examination of His BodyÉ Auburn: Derby, Miller & Co., 1848. Octavo, contemporary three-quarter brown morocco and marbled boards. Housed in custom cloth clamshell box. $4500.First edition of the definitive report documenting the controversial 1846 trial of African American William FreemanÑ"a landmark in American history"Ñwith extensive reportage, expert medical testimony and the famed defense of Freeman by William H. Seward, LincolnÕs future Secretary of State and "one of the most prominent antislavery politicians of the antebellum period", very scarce in contemporary three-quarter morocco.When Freeman, son of an enslaved father freed before his birth, was charged with murdering John Van Nest and his family in 1846, Lincoln's future Secretary of State, William Seward, became a target of rage for choosing to defend Freeman, who confessed and "narrowly avoided two lynch mobs as the sheriff's posse took him to the county jail" (Mullins, "Race, Place and African-American Disenfranchisement"). Wrongly convicted and sentenced at 16 to hard labor in prison, Freeman was often beaten, enduring "severe injury when he was repeatedly hit on the head with a length of wood. From then on, he suffered from deafness and existed in a state of mental confusion" (New York Historical Society). By the time of Freeman's trial, Seward had become "one of the most prominent antislavery politicians of the antebellum period" (Hodges, Encyclopedia of African American History, 85). As the trial opened, "no lawyer was willing to take Freeman's caseÉ when the court asked, 'Will anyone defend this man?' a 'death-like stillness pervaded the crowded room' until Seward rose, his voice strong with emotion, and said, 'May it please the court, I shall remain counsel for the prisoner until his death'" (Kearns Goodwin, Team of Rivals, 85).Seward, who had already served in the U.S. Senate and as governor of New York, would become "one of the most conservative members of Lincoln's cabinet." Yet as governor he "refused to return to Virginia a group of free Black sailors accused of helping a slave to escape" (Finkelman, Slavery in the Courtroom, 72). He also spurred the "state legislature to pass a series of antislavery laws affirming the rights of Black citizens against seizure by Southern agents." Seward researched Freeman's case for weeks, "summoning five doctors who testified to the prisoner's extreme state of mental illness" (Kearns Goodwin, 83-6). As part of his defense, Seward pointedly cited an 1844 trial involving Klein, a man similarly accused who was acquitted and sent to the State Lunatic Asylum. Seward points out here: "Klein was a white man. Freeman is a Negro" (378).While "there was never any doubt that the local jury would return a guilty verdictÉ Seward's defense of Freeman became famous throughout the country" (Kearns Goodwin, 86), and is "one of the most eloquent of his speeches" (ANB). As he states here: "The color of the prisoner's skin, and the form of his features, are not impressed upon the spiritual mindÉ he is still your brother, and mineÉ Hold him then to be a ManÉ There is not a WHITE man or WHITE woman who would not have been dismissed long since from the perils of such a prosecution, if it had only been proved that the offender was so ignorant and so brutalized as not to understand the defense of insanity had been interposed" (emphasis in original).The Freeman case is deemed the "first use of the insanity defense in the United States" (Historical Society). It is, as well, "the first American declaration" of England's M'Naghten Rule. By the time the New York Supreme Court acted on Seward's appeal by reversing Freeman's conviction and calling for a new trial, he "wa.…
