Overview

Excerpt from Extinction of Villenage and Slavery in England: With Somerset's Case I have said that the question of property in negro slaves arose from time to time in the English courts between their introduction in 1553, and the final settlement of the question in 1772, which were variously determined; the court, in each case, going back to the common law for principles to guide them, and in no case, I believe, referring to any English stat ute upon the subject.
