story of our wrongs, from reading and
i . observation.
We come before YOU as unchalleng-
ed witnesses, and speak from personal
knowledge and our sad experience,
If you fail us we are more utterly de-
serted and BETRAYED than If the con
test had been decided against us F.: for
IN that case even victorious slavery
wonld have found profit IN the speedy
+. pardon OF those who had been among
us 9FaVesI loes.
