We are havin' trouble with the niggers
here, wich will end, the Lord above
only knows where. The bother kin be
stated in few words. 4.
Sich NV the niggers in the vicinity
NV the Corners ez don't own their own
land-(too many of EN- do)-hev to
leese land Nv the white citizens, wich
is the natural proprietor Nv the soil.
Every Kentuckian hez consoomin de.

This may be considered exorbitant
by the unthinkin, but it will be redily
seen that gentleman can't live and
play draw poker, and bet on races or
anything else. And then it must be
taken into consideration that the mig
ger wuz the sustenance of the proud
awcashun afore the war, and We see
no reason why he should not be the
same now.
And to the end that he shell not git
too rich it is always incloodid in the
lease that the niggers shel buy every.
thing that he eats, drinks and wears
nv the owner, and that his crops shel
be- held by him till all these advances

When the time for settlement come, il
the fall, the Derkin took the entir'
crop and demonstrated to the ongrate
full man that he WIZ in debt to hin
eggzackly 5000. The nigger cooden

in the fall the niger wuz brot in debt
four hundred dollars. Mirandy Pogral

Now wat does this cossid ongratefu

This wuz an attempt at repudisahen

Despite this warhin he did sit ava
