To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Any person Charged with crimes in any Stale flee- ing from justice to another, shall, on demand of the Exec- utive of the State from which he fled, be delivered up, and removed to the Stale having jurisdiction of the offense. " Art. XIII. Full faith shall be given, in eaeii Slate, to the acta of the Legislature, and to the records and judicial proceedings of the courts and magistrates of every State. " There is no reason to suspect, therefore, that it had occurred to South Carolina at that time... to convert either of these clauses into a grant of power, or to insert among them any provision for the case of fugitives from service. Neither of these changes had been thought of either by South Carolina or, so far as we know, by any other State. That these clauses, as they stood in the Articles of Confederation, were so far satisfactory to all sections and to all parties as not to be among those provisions of the compact which it was de- sired to revise, and which the Convention had come together expressly to reform, seems to be quite evident, not only from the facts already stated, but also from the circumstance that in the six other plans submitted to the Constitution Convention, in the form of resolutions, imbodying the views of leading statesmen, and of the different parties struggling to mould the new institutions upon principles in some respects widely diverse from each other, neither the faith due to public records, nor the immunities mutually pledged to citizens, nor the extradition of fugitives from justice, nor the extradition of fugitives from labor, is so much as once alluded to.
