The occasion of this meeting was the recapture by Capt. Hannum (of the brig "Ottoman") of George, a mulatto boy, who had embarked as a stowaway on his vessel in New Orleans. The slave had been discovered on the passage, and, being detained on an island in Boston harbor, had escaped to the mainland.
