Puritan Origin of the Fug. tive Slave Law

The Boston Courier gives the following bits
oil history, from which il appears that The
practice OF restoring fueiiives from sevice had
lis origin among the old Purilans:
IL may interest the readers of these poners
as piece of curious antiquarian history, to
know the origin Of the practice of restoring
fugitves from service. n the articles of con.
federation between the United Colonir of New
England, viz: Massachusetts, New Plymouth,
Connecticut, New Haven, g. made in l64r
and made as the prembIe declures. BY rl,es
who sail come IN 10 these parts Of a erica
with one and the same end in AIM namely TO
advance the kingdom Of our Lord Jesus thr;si,
and TO enjoy the liberties Of the gssp@ in
purity and pence"--,here is the fcllowT nrcs-
vision :"lt is also agreed that If any servant
runs away from his master into any conl,der-
ate Jurisdiction, in such case. upon certificate
from one m gis,rate ~ the jurisdictions oui of,
which the sevnnr f1'd, or upo, otaer due proof,
the sld sevantshall b. delivered 10 his muster,
or any oihnr thit prrsu $ and brings such Ger.
Ii.irnr" OF proof"
1; ,hns appears. says the Courier. that the
rendition Of fialtiycs from service in this COM
irv commenced more than tIo hundred years
,CN, nni. what is remarkable, the mode Of
proof required by this agreement of the Colo.
MES, is precise Y analogous to one ofthe modes
prcsc rI,d by the act OF 1850; the only differ
eure between Them being the more elevated
character Of the tribunal "in the jurisdiction
ont Of which the servant fed" before which
the proof is now made aud the greater canton
sn the proceedings. II is presumed that the
suhjeat- OF this. compel hst~eon the Colonies,
were rather white servants and apprentices
than negro slaves, who, in 1913, were very few
in number. Ii twas very common in those early
times, more than at present, for master M.
rhanrs TO take irdentured apprintccs who if
they absrond, were (end 7eoao Gre) liable to be
arrested aud returned 10 their masters as per-
sons held to labor OF service in the State
whence they fed.
The rule prevails now in regard to Write
fugirives which was adopted the early Puri.
TINS, and is applied by the fugitive slave law to
fugitive slaves Yet the Abolitonis, would
see the Union dissolved rather than apply the
same rule to runaway blacks to which runaway
white men are subjected!
