"Joe Johnson." "That man," murmured Levin. "Oh, no, it is too horrible." "Do not hate me. Be a little kind, if you do, for I have watched you here hours, almost hoping you never might wake up, so beautiful and pure you looked asleep." "And you--that's the way you look, Huldy. How kin you look so an' be his daughter." "I am not his child, thank God! He is my stepfather." "What is your name, then, besides Huldy?" The girl blushed deeply and hesitated. Her fine gray eyes were turned upon her beautiful bare feet, white as the river that flashed beneath the window. "Hulda Bruinton," she said, swallowing a sigh. "Bruinton--where did I hear that name?" Levin asked; "some tale has been told me, I reckon, about him?" "Yes, everybody knows it," Hulda said, in a voice of pain; "he was hanged for murder at Georgetown when I was a little child." Levin could not speak for astonishment. "I might as well tell you," she said, "for others will, if I conceal it. I can hardly remember my father. My mother soon married Joe and neglected me, and Aunt Patty, my grandmother, brought me up. She was kind to me, but, oh, how cruel she can be to others!"

[7] The origin of Patty Cannon is in doubt; a pamphlet published near her time gives it as above, with strong circumstantial embellishments, yet there are neighbors who say she was of Delaware and Maryland stock--a Baker and a Moore. The weight of tradition is the other way. [8] This incident is fully related in "Niles's Register" of April 25, 1829 (No. 919 of the full series), page 144, where also is a contemporary account of Patty Cannon's arrest. The date of the exposure in this story is transposed from April to October. She was to have been tried in October, but died in May, about six weeks after her arrest. So she WAS arrested in March, as I thought. http://www.iptv.org/series.cfm/11305/ep:104 URL for "wickedest woman in the world" Find source; is it Collins?: According to ________ he left the area but Patty Cannon continued to run the kidnapping enterprise.

Ames, Urban Affairs Robert D. Bethke, English James Curtis, Winterthur Program J. Ritchie Garrison, Museum Studies Bernard L. Herman, Urban Affairs, Committee Chair James Newton, Black American Studies Rebecca J. Siders, Urban Affairs William H. Williams, Parallel Program July 1992 p 43, refs 44 Appendix: The "Patty Cannon Gang" [The exploits of Patty Cannon and her "gang"--in fact and popular lore of Sussex County, Delaware, and nearby Maryland--have been subject to various tellings (Munroe 1984:282- 283). Dick Carter (1 976:25) has provided a useful summary of what he believes is close to historical accuracy. The following, much abbreviated in details, is a synopsis of that summary; it does not purport to substitute for research still needed for fully comprehensive and accurate accounting, especially insofar as implications of variant tellings in oral folklore and popular culture print.] Patty Cannon lived in the town known in the 1820s as "Johnson's Crossroads," located several miles to the west of Seaford on the Delaware-Maryland border, and today designated "Reliance." She came to southwestern Sussex County as the wife a small farmer Jesse Cannon, the latter a descendant of a prominent white family in the area. There is evidence that Jesse Cannon prior to 1821 was involved in slave trading, legal and illegal. Jesse Cannon died in the early 1820s. Patty and son-in-law Joseph Johnson subsequently became notorious for operating "Joe Johnson's tavern" some twenty yards inside the Maryland state line. The place catered to slave traders who ventured up the northern reaches of the Chesapeake Bay. The attic of the tavern is said to have held both slaves and Free Blacks captured or otherwise enticed to the facility, where sales and re-sales (prohibited by law in Delaware at the time) were transacted. White slave traders were also victimized. Patty Cannon was arrested in 1829 upon accidental discovery of a trunk buried on farm property leased by her across the state line in Sussex County. The trunk contained the remains of a Southern slave trader who had disappeared a decade earlier; the bones of other persons, including a child, were also discovered. Cyrus James, a black servant of Patty Cannon, testified as witness to numerous criminal acts over a period of years. Patty Cannon was extradited to Sussex County jail at Georgetown, where she committed suicide prior to trial. Sources cited I hadn't seen before: Carter, Dick. The History of Sussex County.

In particular, kidnappers preyed on the border lands just north of slavery; “the vast majority of kidnappings,” including Kitty Payne’s, took place “in the border states of Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.” 39 C. Wilson, 10 The Cannon-Johnson gang, probably “the most nefarious and successful kidnapping ring of the pre-Civil War era,” employed an African-American man named Ransom as a decoy. 165 Even when the victims were women and children, kidnappers often found it more effective to work in gangs. The Cannon-Johnson gang operated on the Delaware-Maryland border and routinely made excursions into Pennsylvania, and particularly Philadelphia, to enslave free African Americans.167 Many of their victims, like the Paynes, were women and children, such as young Sarah Hagerman, whom the Cannon-Johnson gang kidnapped from her Pennsylvania home in 1819.168 165 C.

Located just inside the border of a free state, the city harbored many fugitives and free African Americans. Their presence, combined with Philadelphia’s proximity to two slave states, Maryland and Delaware, made the city a rich subject for Winch’s study of kidnapping. Winch suggests that there were in fact two “underground railroads:” one running north, bringing people to freedom, and the other running south, stealing freedom from its unwilling “passengers.” Julie Winch, “Philadelphia and the Other Underground Railroad,” Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography 111 (January 1987): 3 James McBride: Song Yet Sung http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/excerpts/2007-12-26-Song-Yet-Sung_N.htm book to be published Feb 5, 2008, uses PC as his villain in a novel about delusional antebellum black woman (check years; may be set long after PC actually dead) other URLs Rootsweb Rootsweb. who ...Joe Johnson was Ebenezer Fraser's brother.
