9104. WESTERN TERRITORY, Slavery in.—
I am glad to find we have 4,000,000 acres west of Chafalaya. How much better to
have every 160 acres settled by an able-bodied
militiaman, than by purchasers with their
hordes of negroes, to add weakness instead of
strength.—
To Albert Gallatin. Washington ed. v, 222.
(Dec. 1807)
