A correspondent Of the Meridian
Clarion, writing - the Intelligencer
from Canton, says
A lady Of this town has received a
letter from one Of her slaves, who went
off to. Freedom and happiness along
with Sherman. The letter begins with
a humble Dear Mistis and goes on !
with the most dolorous style to relate I
the miseries he and his fellow "freemen' /
were enduring, and to lament the folly
Of his evil conduct He says they have /
only exchanged good for unmerciful |
masters, who compel them to labor for /
five dollars a month, when bacon is one |
dollar per pound This American |
citizen of African descent represents !
himself and all Others Of his color IN 1
Vicksburg as being exceedingly anxious /
to return to bondage, and implores his
mistress to attemp their deliyerance. I
He says they will escape if possible.
