The even convinced him he had waked up the wrong passengers. They gave the negro a little the soundest cudgeling he ever had. The whole body of the negroes became outraged at this and armed themselves with guns, pistols, bowie knives, axes, and clubs swearing vengeance on the white fellows that whipped their colored brother and if the rest of the students came to their assistance, prepared for a general battle.they did not proceed to violence but contented themselves by getting out warrants for the arrest of the students concerned in the affray.Some think the disturbance will not end here but that during the coming vacation while a good many of the students are at home the negroes will attempt to overpower those that remain here.

A few evenings since a big black fellow who thought himself as good as anybody undertook to make some students here from Kentucky and some of the other slave states, get out of his road. The even convinced him he had waked up the wrong passengers. They gave the negro a little the soundest cudgeling he ever had. The whole body of the negroes became outraged at this and armed themselves with guns, pistols, bowie knives, axes, and clubs swearing vengeance on the white fellows that whipped their colored brother and if the rest of the students came to their assistance, prepared for a general battle.they did not proceed to violence but contented themselves by getting out warrants for the arrest of the students concerned in the affray.Some think the disturbance will not end here but that during the coming vacation while a good many of the students are at home the negroes will attempt to overpower those that remain here. All I can say is that if they do there will be blood spilled. The blacks are nearly all armed. To make the matter worse a good many of the inhabitants take sides with the niggers.

There were warrants issued for the arrest of five fugitives. Two of them were taken at Robstown on the Loughegheny River, but the free blacks and abolitionists raised a mob, rescued the slaves and cut some of the officers. Two others were arrested in Brownsville and after creating a good deal of excitement were brought to Uniontown for trial. After they had been lodged in jail news came that there was a considerable body of armed negroes headed by one or two abolitionists coming from Brownsville to attempt a rescue. In hearing this the sheriff ordered out the military to maintain the laws. A part of the darkies reported to be coming, come in town one at a time. Finding the soldiers ready and anxious for a fight they left town without ceremony. Money was raised to indemnify the owners and the slaves set at liberty.\" 1855 Letter from Criglersville to Luray \"Mr Lindsay has two negroes with the fever, bad cases, I attend to them and go there every other day. It is seven miles from here. He is the first man in the county that gave me substantial encouragement. He says he has more confidence in the over the ridge doctors than he has in those about here.
