One day gentlemen came there
and said we had one of his darkies
who had run away. The slave had
been there a month at work on the
Notifications and we had never taken
the pains to inquire where he was
from, or who he belonged to. My
brother, Asa, gave the man an order
to take him from the overseer whom
he was working under, but the man
could not find him there. He waited
around all the afternoon, but his
darby did not make his appearance at
night with the rest. The man went
down to the commandant of the post
and the next morning came back with
an order commanding my brother to
deliver up his negro. Asa told him
he considered that an insult, and that
he had done all he could to help him
find the man, and now he might go to
h before he would be a niger
catcher for him. The more he said
the madden he got, and the language
he used was more forcible than ele-
giant. In fact, believe it would have
made the most thoroughbred mule
driver blush with envy to have heard
