General notes: Title from item. Date notes: Date supplied by cataloger. Biographical and historical notes: Call to a meeting at the Melodeon to be addressed by Rev. Theodore Parker to memorialize the arrest of the fugitive slave Thomas Sims and to express outrage at the action. Thomas Sims (b. 1834) escaped slavery in Georgia in 1851 and made his way to Boston. In April of that year he was arrested under the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850. He was put on trial in Boston before being returned to Georgia aboard a U.S. naval vessel. As with the fugitive slave Anthony Burns, who was arrested under the same law in 1854, the arrest of Sims incited the ire of northern abolitionists.
