- In Common Law Book D, Daniel is listed as having been charged with a felony for setting William C. Walton's tobacco house on fire on April 29, 1851. He pled not guilty, but the court unanimously found him guilty. He was not condemned to death, but it was decided that he should instead be transported outside the boundaries of the United States. He was "assessed in value," by the court to be worth $700.00. John Persinger, Daniel's enslaver, was ordered to pay W.M. Cook $25.00 for defending Daniel in court.
