Whereas it is represented to this Court that Samuel
Strudwick had whipped one of his Slaves by which whipping & she afterwards
died, It is thereupon Ordered by consent of the Solicitor General Edward Jones
that recognizance be taken for the appearance of said Samuel Strudwick at the
next Superior Court to answer for the Killing of said Negro. Whereupon Paoli
Ashe, Richard Ashe & John Taylor Esqs entered into recognizance in the Sum
[OCPQS 9/527 – May 1818]
of £500 for his appearance. [Strudwick had beaten his slaves
the day before this on Friday 29 May 1818 in connection, as the inquest and
several white witnesses said, with a conspiracy among several of his slaves to
poison the Strudwick family as well as the closely related family of Paoli
Ashe. After being whipped with a riding crop several slaves confessed, though
the last to be beaten, Bella, admitted only to being in possession of poison.
The Strudwicks took pains to emphasize that Bella was beaten on the legs and
buttocks, not on her torso and claimed that she late died of a violent
hysterical fit caused, they said, by her taking some of her own poison, though
what the actual facts of this case were remain unclear. The inquest formally
ruled that the beating had not caused Bella’s death. However it is clear that
Strudwick’s mistreatment of Bella and his other slaves was the ultimate cause
of the entire incident. Strudwick was ordered to appear in Superior Court over
this matter because it was not until Thomas Ruffin’s infamous ruling in State
vs Mann in 1829 that it was clear under North Carolina law that a master
had the right to discipline his slaves to the point of killing them. Surely Thomas
Ruffin was well aware of this case in 1818 and had this incident partly in mind
when he wrote his decision in State vs Mann. See Inquest images 83-92.]
