was To go with the slaves TO and from
the cotton fields and to see that each
and every one did his portion of the
work on the plantation. II any be-
came unruly or showed n disposition
TO shirk, his orders were to let them
feel the lash of the whip. which was
always in his hands ready for use.

ruling by kindness rather than fear.

get the chores done before ii was

they would march to the fields later
almost invariably they would sing In
lusty, deep tones full of quavers and
