The man with the branded hand

Walker was captured while attempting to smuggle slaves to freedom in 1844. He became the only man branded in a courtroom by a U.S. Marshal. Once released, he remained active in the antislavery movement, participated in the Underground Railroad, and gave abolitionist lecture tours across the North.
