Description
An article describing the commontion in a neighborhood as a man who states his name as Andrew Shields had escaped the capture and confinement by Benjamin and George Brasher and John T. Bishop had intended to restrain him and taking him into slavery in the south. Mr. Shields professed his free status and yet the article raises doubts and reinforces a sense of legal "duty" to return Mr. Shields into slavery.
