These man were old, and could subsiss only, them
and their wives. out of the labor of few negroes

But the military commander having taken these
negroes for the Federal service, the two farmers
were lsft heiplsss, in the midst of community
egitated by the passions of eyn war. and IN way
inclined to come to their assistance. The eonse-
