Jonathan Walker, Branded Hand S for Slave Stealer
Bildnummer 12651898
| US Marshall branding the hand of Jonathan Walker with the initials S for slave stealer. Jonathan Walker (1799 May 1, 1878) was an American abolitionist. In 1837, he moved to Florida where the degrading conditions and brutality shown to slaves bothered him. In 1844 he aided several slaves as they attempted to make escape in an open boat from the coast of Florida to the British West Indies. Caught and put on trial in federal court, Walker was convicted, sentenced to be tied to a pillory, and publicly branded on his right hand with the letters S for slave stealer. Walker was then returned to jail, confined eleven months, and released only after northern abolitionists paid his fine. For five years after his release, Walker lectured on slavery in the northern and western states. He died in 1878 and a monument was erected in his honour. Daguerreotype of Walker's branded hand by photographers Southworth & Hawes 1845. | |
