What was the provision of the fugitive slave act? All friend of his slaves must be returned to their owners? All slaves must have a written pass to leave plantations? If a slave made it to a free territory he was free? Slaves trying to run away where relocated
The Fugitive Slave Act was enacted by the United States Congress as part of the Compromise of 1850. The main provisions of the act were as follows:
1. The act required that all runaway slaves be returned to their owners, regardless of whether they were found in free or slave states.
2. Any person who aided or assisted a runaway slave, or obstructed their capture, could be fined or imprisoned.
3. The act made it easier for slave owners and their agents to apprehend and recapture runaway slaves by allowing them to bypass the usual legal procedures and present their claims directly to federal commissioners.
4. The act denied fugitive slaves the right to a jury trial and the right to testify on their own behalf.
5. The act imposed penalties for anyone who falsely claimed to be a slave's owner in order to kidnap and sell them into slavery.
6. The act required that local and state law enforcement officials assist in the capture and return of runaway slaves, if requested by their owners.
In summary, the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 aimed to strengthen and enforce the rights of slaveholders to recapture their escaped slaves, even if they had reached free territory. It placed a significant burden on free states to cooperate in the return of fugitive slaves, which led to increased tensions between abolitionists and supporters of slavery.
