Because Freeded isn't a word
"The Bloodhound Bill" fleeing slaves couldn't testify for own behalf, denied a jury/trial, and the northerners must return fugitive slaves to their owners to possible harsher treatment such as having their (the slaves') foot cut off.

Abolitionist feeling had intensified in Congress, and it was getting harder to create new slave-states. So the North had to compensate by making a big gesture of appeasement to the South by promising to crack down on runaways.
The new law obliged every citizen to report anyone who looked like a fugitive slave, on pain of a heavy fine. The public strongly resented being treated like unpaid slave-catchers, and Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' as a protest against it.
