- Joseph_Knight_(slave) abstract "Joseph Knight was a man born in Africa and sold as a slave in Jamaica to a Scottish owner, John Wedderburn of Ballendean. Knight was made a household servant by Wedderburn and in 1769 accompanied him to Scotland where, inspired by Somersett's Case in England in which the English courts had held that slavery did not exist under English law, Knight brought a freedom suit against his master. Knight won his claim, establishing the principle that Scots law would not uphold the institution of slavery.".
