First Edition. "(SLAVERY) WILLIAMSON, Passmore. Case of Passmore Williamson. Report of the Proceedings on the Writ of Habeas Corpus, Issued by the Hon. John K. Kane, Judge of the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, In the Case of the United States of America Ex. Rel. John H. Wheeler vs.…Passmore Williamson, Including the Several Opinions Delivered; And The Arguments of Counsel, Reported by Arthur Cannon, Esq., Phonographer. Philadelphia: Uriah Hunt & Son, 1856. Octavo, modern half calf-gilt, marbled boards; pp. 191. $2200.First edition of "the most complete record available" of the controversial Pennsylvania case on fugitive slaves, a core work establishing a precedent "in federal and state courts and important cause célèbre for the antislavery movement," crucial in asserting a clear path for the following year's Dred Scott decision and provoking a "legal crisis that led to the Civil War."During the fugitive slave controversy, the abolitionist underground kicked into high gear." This momentous shift was propelled by Federal District Judge John K. Kane in the Passmore Williamson case involving the rights of fugitive slave Jane Johnson. "In July 1855 Col. John H. Wheeler, the U.S. minister plenipotentiary designate to Nicaragua, traveled to Philadelphia with his slave Jane and her two sons." When she "managed to get word out of her desire for freedom," Black abolitionist William Still, famed for his 1872 work, Underground Railroad, heard of her plight and alerted white abolitionist Passmore Williamson. They arranged to meet at the Philadelphia wharf and Williamson, who arrived first, immediately told Jane "she was entitled to her freedom and released her from Wheeler's grasp." As she fled with her two sons, "a heated exchange and scuffle occurred between Still, Williamson and Wheeler, who was held down by two of the five Black dockworkers present" (Sinha, Slave's Cause, 527-28).This triggered a series of major court cases when Williamson was presented with a writ of habeas corpus by Judge Kane, and indictments were issued charging Williamson and the Black dockworkers for riot, assault and robbery for the theft of slave property in transit. Although Williamson stated Jane and her sons were never in his custody, Kane charged him with contempt and sentenced him to jail. As Frederick Douglass joined with others in attacking Kane's "tyrannical position" and Williamson petitioned for the contempt charge to be dropped, Jane, who adopted the surname of Johnson, played yet another key role. In an affidavit sworn in Massachusetts, she affirmed that she had never been in Williamson's custody, stating: "Nobody forced me away I always wished to be free and meant to be free when I came North" (Sinha, 529). Although Jane was likely considered free under Pennsylvania law, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court "refused to interfere with Williamson's incarceration" after Judge Kane rejected Jane's affidavit (Finkelman, Slavery in the Courtroom, 40-41). In effect, Kane's defense of slave-owner rights "created a new constitutional right'transit for property and person'based on a Constitution written to 'establish a more perfect union.'" Williamson was imprisoned for nearly six months and became a martyr for the abolitionist cause, but "more important was the precedent set in the federal and state courts by this case." Judge Kane's insistence "that Wheeler had a right to bring his slaves into Pennsylvania and capture them there if they escaped despite state law explicitly prohibiting it," opened the way for the "high-water mark of this position in the Dred Scott case (1857), a year after Kane's opinion" (Finkelman, Imperfect Union, 260-64; emphasis added). The case of Passmore Williamson and Jane Johnson was "an important cause célèbre for the antislavery movement [an] example ofand contributor tothe legal crisis and the crisis in federalism that led to the Civil War" (Finkelman, Slavery, 41).

[Philadelphia? n.p., n.d., ca. 1855]. 8¾ x 4¼ inches. Letterpress-printed on very thin paper. Old transmittal folds; small previous mends to verso; very good. The imprisonment of Passmore Williamson (18221895) under Judge Kane's order provoked a rare outpouring of support from leading Philadelphians. An important Philadelphia ab…olitionist, Williamson was serving a 90-day sentence for a contempt charge related to a violation of the Fugitive Slave Law. As Secretary of the Pennsylvania Society for Promoting the Abolition of Slavery, Williamson had aided the self-liberation of Jane Johnson and her two children, who were brought into the free state of Pennsylvania by their enslaver. His detention tested the limits of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 and the contested authority of federal versus state power over habeas corpus. Borrowing from text published in The Sun on September 22, 1855, this rare and unrecorded handbill publicly defends Williamson's "truthfulness and upright character" against accusations of evading a writ of habeas corpus. Thirty citizensincluding Quaker merchants, abolitionists, and physiciansattest to his integrity, arguing that no fair trial would have reached Judge Kane's conclusion. The text ends with a satirical poem titled "A Pas-Kane-ade," mocking Kane's supposed tyranny by casting him as a would-be entrant to Hell. The juxtaposition of legal testimony and dark satire underscores how publicly Kane's judgment was ridiculed. Printed on very thin paper, this is a truly ephemeral piece of Philadelphia anti-slavery activity. Larger-sized abolitionist broadsides tend to survive in greater numbers because of their format. By contrast, anti-slavery handbills, smaller, did not and are markedly rarer.
