On
Fjabtb District Courm

Nine. Josephine Deenir has instituted
suit in this court against John G. Benson,
captain and owner Of the steamboat Cover
nor Allen, claiming $4,000 for actual and
exemplary damages.
The facts Of the case are simply these:
Nine. Josephine being in the city Of New
Orleans, and, DESTROYS to 60 to her planta-
tion in the parish OF POinte COupee, went
on board the steamboat Governor Allen,
plying between the ports of New Orleans
and Yicksburg, and on account of her being
a person of color she was denied the privil-
ege Of state room in the cabin, or a seat
al the table to take her meals on said boat.
Josephine says that she was forced to re-
main in a small cOmpaI tmCnt in the rear of
said boat without the cOmmORCOnvenienc
granted to the other passengers; that her
meals were brought out to her to said place
after all the cabin passengers and officers
had sat at the table and eaten.
The petitioner adds that she was COM
PEELED to sit up all night, although bed
was offered to her on the floor of said boat,
which she refused, for the reason that the
place was public and place of passage for
every one, and she could not, on account of
deliCacy, disrObe herself or be exposed to
the sight of every one.
She, therefore, enters suit for the amount
above stated, against Mr.. Benson, under
the provisions of article thirteen of the
c constitution of Louisiana, under the laws
Of'the u tied States, and under the pro-
vision of act No. 3S of the General As
sembly Of 1862
