 Dred Scott v. Sandford - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was purchased around 1833 by Dr. John Emerson, a surgeon in the U.S. Army, from Peter Blow, who had owned Scott perhaps since his birth around 1800 but at least since 1818.
Sanford defended the suit because of the monetary interest; since the beginning of the first trials, Scott and his family, in the custody of the St. Louis County Sheriff, had been rented out and the proceeds were held in escrow for the ultimate winner of the case.
After the November vote, President-elect James Buchanan wrote to his friend Supreme Court Justice John Catron asking whether the case would be decided before his inauguration in March.
