It is the twelfth section of an act entitled, " an act to punish offences against slave property.

" Sec. 12. If any free person, by speaking or by writing, assert or maintain that persons have not the right to hold slaves in the Terri- tory, or shall introduce into Ka
...nsas, print, publish, write, circulate, or cause to be introduced into the Territory, wi'itten, prmted, published, or circulated in this Territory, any book, paper, magazine, pamphlet, or circular, containing any denial of the rights of persons to hold slaves in tliis Territory, such person shall be deemed guilty of felony, and punished by imprisonment at hard labor for a term not less than two years.
