Anti-slavery riot in Marion, Ohio

In Marion, Ohio, in July 1839, William Mitchell was seized by a group of men from Virginia, who alleged that he was an escaped slave. Mitchell, who had been living in Marion for at least a year, was placed on trial under Ohio's 1839 Fugitive Slave Act in the Court of Common Pleas, headed by Ozias Bowen.
