[1] James Watkins, a fugitive slave from Maryland, mentions two daughters born out of wedlock by one or two enslaved women.
He calls the first one "a white slave" and reports that she remained enslaved until he (Watkins) freed her by bringing her to the Free States.
When she refused being used for that purpose out of her notion of Christian chastity, she was so severely flogged that she died in Watkins' presence.
[6] Worthington died at "Shawan" in Baltimore County, Maryland, and was interred in a private cemetery on his farm.
