The fugitive slave act of 1793 authorized local governments to recapture escaped slaves and imposed laws restricting the aiding of runaway slaves. This act was provised in 1850 "compromise of 1850" forcing locals to aid in the capturing of slaves and denied the right of slaves to have a trial by jury. The aiding of escaped slaves was also punished more than in the first act
