old black woman, formerly owned by gentleman
in this County, and who had been purchased a yea
or two ago by her husband, and taken tO Pcnnsyl
vania, passed through this place on her way to hc
former master. She stated that she had tried tht
pleasure Of negro freedom in Pennsylvania, ant
with all its cnjoymcnts and sweets, it could no
compare with slavery in Virginia She says tina
whill slave she had always been well fed anC
clothed, but in Pennsylvania her labor was not re
warded with these comforts. Her husband refuse,

were practicable, many others would do likewise.
