|a The defendant, a slave, was tried by a jury and found guilty of assaulting a white woman. He was sentenced to life imprisonment and appealed for a new trial. The basis of appeal centred on the Act of June 1st 1846 which permitted two kinds of punishment for slaves: death and corporal punishment, leading the defendant to claim that the sentence of life imprisonment was not legally sound. The Supreme Court affirmed judgment against the defendant claiming that the Act of 1846 did not repeal the earlier Act of April 6th 1843 which listed imprisonment for life among the punishments for any crime committed by a slave. A further application was made for a re-hearing; it was refused.
