At least three millions person in these states are in this condition. They were made Slaves and are held such by force, and by being put in fear and this for no crime. Suppose I should seize you, rob you of your liberty drive you into the field and make you work without pay as long as you live, would that be justice and kindness or monstrous injustice and cruelty? Now, everybody knows that the slaveholders do these thing to the slaves every day and yet it is stoutly affirmed that they treat them well and kindly and that their tender regard for their slaves restrain their master from inflicting cruelties among them.
