CHAPTER 8 The Sale Blake; or the huts of America. With an introd. by Floyd Miller | ||
Letter
CAPT. HARRIS: —
Having learned that there are private individuals at the sale, who design purchasing my Negro man, Harry, for his own personal advantage, you will peremptorily postpone the sale — making such apology as the occasion demands — and effect a private sale with Richard Crow, Esq., who offers me two thousand dollars for him. Let the boy return to me. Believe me to be,
Very Respectfully,
STEPHEN FRANKS
Capt. John Harris Natchez, Nov. 29th, 1852.
