fore out OF Boston, and accustomed TO
ito rough airs, seemed Italian in soft

when went out to the fields where the
slaves were at work. For men and wo-
men were engaged in the hard outdoor
work together, the former hardly dis
tinguishable from the latter by their
drooe, while upon them were laid the
heaviest burdens, and the ovarseers as
signed TO them the heaviest tasks. They
were wives and mothers not unfrequent-
~. But they had no home life, we're 10

little Of the happiness and comfor.
which Wifeh0Od and motherhood in

Of womanhood had disappeared. They
