I. Fugitive Slave Laws a. Slaveholders or their agents could seize a slave in the North for return b. Slaves were not entitled to a trial by jury or to testify on their own behalf c. Federal marshals had to help in the recapture of slaves d. Anyone found helping an escaped slave was fined $1,000 and/or imprisoned for 6 months. e. Effect: increased abolitionist feelings in the North. II. Personal Liberty Laws A. Passed in the North to combat the Fugitive slave laws B. Forbid state officials from assisting in captures C. Activated Abolistionists in the North. –Uncle Tom’s Cabin written by Harriet Beecher Stowe

You could be fined and/or imprisoned for helping a runaway slave. Cazenovia, MA, Fugitive Slave Law Convention held on 21 and 22 August 1850; Frederick Douglass is seated at the right side of the table. The Fugitive Slave Law All Americans, by law, were required to help catch runaway slaves. This law infuriated northerners!

ABOLITIONISTS RESPOND  Denounced by Abolitionists  Harriet Beecher Stowe’s, Uncle Tom’s Cabin is published  Abolitionists refuse to enforce the law  Underground Railroad becomes more active

SOUTHERNERS RESPOND  Southerners threatened secession and war  Believed it should be enforced because the Constitution protects property

Picture/Stowe Harriet Beecher Stowe, Abolitionist, authored the book Uncle Tom’s Cabin – “So, you’re the little lady who caused this war.” Book was used as propaganda to show the inhumanity of slavery. Southerners were enraged by this book and called it “lies”.
