First sentence: MY attention was first called to the subject of slavery, in my boyhood, by an illustrated pamphlet, upon the first page of which was shown the picture of a negro slave woman, with her baby in her arms, who was being severely whipped by a cruel slave-driver, or plantation overseer, until her bared back was lacerated, and blood was flowing from the wounds.
