228. HENRY JAMES BROWN PAPERS
110 items, ca. 1830-84
Personal correspondence and diary of this Powhatan
County painter and farmer who had a farm in Missouri run by an overseer. In a
November 4, 1848, letter to Brown, the
overseer, L. Weedin, described the health of the
slaves and an episode about a runaway brought back to a neighboring farm.
There are other scattered references to slaves
in Missouri and Virginia. In a diary written
on a trip from Virginia to Missouri, probably in 1844, Brown referred often to fears that abolitionists
would take his female slave, especially in Cincinnati.
