THE WILLIS CASE.

A year or SO ago, q South Carolinian, with some-
thing more than the average of slaveholding hui
mainly, brought a colored woman and her children
to Cincinnati for the purpose of securing their
freedom and the education of the children. The
woman was his slave and TO her children he sus-
tanned the double relation of father and patriar-
chnl slave master. Mr.. Willis fell dead upor the
wharf as he led his family from the steam boat to
their lodgings. By the interposi.ion of Mr.. Jollia
and others, the freedom of the family was secured
against the attempts of the officers of the boat to
return them to slavery. Had Mr.. Willis life been
cut short Il few minutes sooner they would proba-
bly, have lost their freedom. Previous to his death
the father and master had made a will bequeath-
ing to the family n large estate, belonging to which
were some forty slaves. To secure possession of
this property, with the intent to emancipate the
slaves, Mr.. Jolliff has been prosecuting the case
before the Carolina Courts. The case has been
lately decided adversely to the claims of the fami-
~, as We learn from the following paragraph from
a Carolina paper:
