EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM Hon. WILLIAM
JAY TO THE AUTHOR.
Your analysis Of the slave laws is very
able, and your exhibition of their practical
application by the Southern Courts, evince
great and careful research" Your book
is as impregnable against the charge of ex-
aggeration as Euclid's Geometry, since, like
that, it consists of propositions and demon
strations. The book is not only true, but it
is unquestionably true"
