NEGRO REFUGEE
INCANADA SEEKS
SAFETY FROM Us
Hard Fight Made BY Members Of
His Race To Prevent Return
To North Carolina


HAMILTON, Ont, 18.-Matthew
Bullock, the negro whose deporta-
tion to North Carolina is sought on
the charge of melting to riot, will
annear today before inspectors of the
Canadian migration department for
questioning in regard to his alleged
Illegal entrance into Canada. The
public will be excluded.
It is said there are ample funds
to fight his case.
In delving into the ancient court
records, the Canadian barristers have
found at least one historical near
parallel to the Bullock case-that of
an American negro slave, one Ander-
son, whose extradition was demanded
in 1862 on the ground that he had
slain his master, an Ohioan, named
Digges.
Bullock's cause is being pleaded by
Canadian members of his own race
and by public officials who demand
that the negro be given every ad-
vantage of the immigration laws and
the international courts in order that
Canada may continue his haven from
North Carolina authorities. Ander-
sons case was pleaded by Abraham
Lincoln, then president of the United
States, and by British abolitionists,
who based their defense of the negro
on the ground that mo slaves can
remain one when he touches British
soil"
In 1862 American authorities de-
manded Anderson's extradition on
the ground that he escaped from
bondage in Ohio, and when about to
be recaptured, had murdered his mas
ter, Digges.
When the negro was caught in
Canada, the old fugitive slave law''
still was in effect. But the ashes of
the British abolition agitation were
still hot, and sentiment in favor of
the negro's lain to Canada as a
haven of refuge ran strong.
Then President Lincoln signed the
emancipation proclamation striking
off the shackles of all American
slaves. But, although it strengthened
British sentiment in favor of Ander-
son, President Lincoln's act did not
affect the Ashburton treaty of 1912,
under which Great Britain, including
Canala, agreed with the United
States 10 surrender reciprocally all
persons charged with grave non-pol-
itlcal offenses. 1t was under this
treaty that American officials press
ed their demands for Anderson's ex-
tradition.
preliminary trial of Anderson was
held at Toronto. Two of the three
Justices decided against him. and
eventually the trial was carried to
England on an appeal.
Here the abolitionists stepped in
with their plea that mo slave remains
one when he touches British soil"
and Anderson was set free.
Canadian officials do not believe
that the Anderson case will govern
the outcome of the proceedings
against Bullock, although they point
to 1t as another notable instance
~here all the resources of British
law, combined with wave of public
sentiment, were invoked by the spec
tacie of an American negro seeking
maven in the land across the border.
