Charge: assault on H.W.P. Junius
Defendant: James Slacum
[Note: Will try to get court record on this. It seems that Dr. Junius may not have been the upstanding clergyman as he presented himself according to the following newspaper article.]
Rochester Democrat, August 17, 1858.
A Jeremy Diddler at Niagara Falls
"Some days since, a fine-looking and gentlemanly man, tolerably advanced in years, arrived at the International Hotel, Niagara Falls, with a female companion, and put upon the register the name of Dr. H W. P. JUNIUS and lady," from Lexington, Ky. In short, the Doctor wanted it known he was a southern gentleman traveling north for health and recreation."
He claimed he was robbed of all his money $300 in cash in $10 notes when it came time to leave the hotel. He was very anxious and upset of course, and the kindly hotelier, Mr. Osbourn, taking pity on him was assured Dr. Junius credit was good. So Dr. Junius arranged to a $250 draft on his bank in Louisville, KY for Mr. Osbourn to cash. In order to purchase the bank draft, Mr. Osborn had to give his bank a $70 check. All seemed fine and Dr. Junius with his lady left Saratoga. Mr. Osborn then found out the bank in Kentucky had never heard of Dr. Junius and a quick message was sent to the bank in Lockport not to cash the $70 check.
Dr. Junius returned to Lockport to cash his check and he was arrested. His lady was not with him, having been left in a Buffalo hotel. The good Dr. was taken to Niagra Falls where he "was unable to tell the names of any of the prominent men of that place [Lexington, KY] and some Simon Pure Kentucky gentlemen from that vicinity who happened to be staying at the Falls just now, happened to be ignorant of the existence of such a clergyman."
The article concluded with the possibility of his having to go to state prison in New York unless he can show his clean record.

The will of Falvey Frayser has survived and is among the Gregory Papers at the Virginia State Library (Archives). He mentioned his sister Mary, Anne, Susanna Richeson: his brothers: William and Thomas; his mother and his "Cousin from the Ferry" at West Point. Thomas was named executor of the will. Thomas Frayser, executor of Falvey's will, was the son of a William Frayser.
Most of his property was left to the children of his brother, William. Falvey received 2666 and 2/3 acres of land in recognition of his services as a Lieutentant in the Virginia Continental Line for three years. He was not married and had no children.
--------------------
Given the information in Falvey Frayser's will, his family were the children of William Frayser at West Point. He was a ship builder and built ships for the Virginia State Navy, one of which was the "Tempest." There is much in the old Williamsburg Gazette regarding the ferry and the business activities of the Frazers.
William Frazer, Jr. who in 1759 was issued a patent to 900 acres of land from Thomas Mallory's estate, lying on the Mattaponi River below Madison's Creek, the patent for which was registered in the Secretary's Office in Williamsburg in Land Patent Book No 33 page 547. By 1774, Frazer operated a ferry across the Mattaponi between his Ordinary at Wakema in King William and the opposite bank near King and Queen Courthouse. At one time Fraser's Ferry was manually pulled by mules on each side, from the King William side to the King and Queen side of the Mattaponi River.
Later, Frazer built a warehouse at Wakema to inspect tobacco. In the summer of 1781, Frazer's shipyard on the Mattaponi built flatboats for General LaFayette for use in the American Revolution.
George Washington mentions in his diary for May 1768, "Set of from Colo. Bassetts for Nomony. Crossd over to Claibornes from thence by Frazers Ferry to Hobs hole dining at Webbs Ordinary." Nomini was a Westmoreland County neighborhood clustered around Nomini Creek, which emptied into the Potomac River about 12 miles below Washinton's birthplace at Pope's Creek. From Claiborne's ferry, his party rode through King William County to cross the Mattaponi River at William Frazier's (many spellings) ferry. They then proceeded almost due north through King and Queen County, crossing into Essex County where they stopped in the afternoon for dinner at Webb?s tavern (for the Webb family of Essex County.
A petition to Virginia General Assembly by John Frazer, Jr., executor & son of William Frazer, deceased, who was employed by the Navy Board in 1776 with John Roane to furnish supplied to the builders of ships of war on the Mattaponi River, asking for the relief from debts accrued by testator (King William Co. - 1787/11/22 & 1788/11/04).
