- Bras-Coupé abstract "Bras-Coupé is the nom de plume of a slave named Squire, who lived from the early 19th century to 1837 in Louisiana.Bras-Coupé was a talented entertainer and dancer who was allowed to travel by his master. But after numerous escape attempts, in 1834 a planters' patrol captured him and amputated his right arm as punishment. However he ran away again, and organized a gang of escaped slaves as well as sympathetic whites in the 1830s (which was unheard of at the time). The gang robbed plantations, stores and merchants. In the three years to his death Bras-Coupé's fame grew to the point where superhuman attributes were given to him, for example, being immune to bullets. When shot by hunters in 1837 he survived, but while recuperating in the hut of a fisherman ally, Francisco Garcia, he was bludgeoned to death with a club so that Garcia could claim a $2000 reward.A character named Bras Coupé with a similar life story appears in the 1880 novel The Grandissimes: A Story of Creole Life by George Washington Cable.".
