Mark as
Remarks of Richard H. Dana, Jr., esq. before the Committee on federal relations, on the proposed removal of Edward G. Loring, esq. from the office of judge of probate
The removal of Judge Loring was sought because of his decision returning Anthony Burns to slavery under the federal Fugitive Slave Law of 1850. Dana argues against the removal, but urges the Massachusetts legislature to instead take action in opposing the Fugitive Slave Law.
