Summary
| Description |
English: In 1855, as a lawyer, Jameson led the defense of a slave named Celia in what became an influential trial in the history of slavery. He based his unsuccessful "defense on the premise that under Missouri law Celia possessed the same right to use deadly force to defend her honor as did white women."
In his later years Jameson was a farmer, and was ordained as a minister in the Christian Church. |
