1) What was the Fugitive Slave Law?

Enacted by Congress in 1850, this act was part of the Compromise of 1850. The act required that slaves be returned to their owners, even if they were in a free state. The act also made the federal government responsible for finding, returning, and trying escaped slaves. This compromise angered Abolitionists and even led to the capture of freed blacks, who were then enslaved in the South.

not really a history or a question at all.
