Excerpt from Anti-Slavery Leaders of North Carolina When, about three years ago, I began to make a study of Slavery in North Carolina I found that there were some men like Mr. Helper, Prof. Hedrick, and Mr. Goodloe, whose participation in the anti-slavery cause demanded a more extended notice than it was possible to give in a gen eral treatment of the subject. Consequently, I have pre pared the present sketches. I offer them to the public because it does not seem good that the personalities of North Carolina's contributors to the anti-slavery cause should be forgotten. For assistance in this work my thanks are due to Mr. Helper, Mr. Goodloe, Mr. Charles J. Hedrick, of George town, D. C., and Dr. Dred Peacock, of Greensboro, N. C.

Excerpt from Historical Papers, Vol. 17: Published by the Trinity College Historical Society The most valuable studies of work done on the economic, legal, social, and religious aspects of slavery in North Carolina are the chapters by Dr. Wm. K. Boyd, of Duke University, in his History of North Carolina in the Federal Period, and Dr. John S. Bassett's Slavery and Servimde in the Colony of North Carolina, Slavery in North Carolina, and A nti-s lavery Leader: of North Carolina. It is upon these works that I have relied mainly for general information concerning slavery in North Carolina, and it is hoped that this essay may supplement these investigations, and also be of aid to any who may do a similar work for any other of the former slave holding states.

Excerpt from Slavery and Servitude in the Colony of North Carolina Conditions in the South were favorable to slavery. Large stretches Of fertile land, warm Climate, at once congenial to the negroe's and enervating to the whites, and in some places unhealthy regions where white men did not care to work; all these helped to draw slavery to America. Planted at first in the Spanish possessions of the West Indies, it spread as soon as the mainland was settled along the entire coast from Jamestown, both northward and southward. The method by which this extension was accomplished is inter esting. It may be divided for our. Purposes into two stages, an experimental stage and a stage Of diffusion.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... you will have made so much money by their labor that you will be willing to let them go?....If you believe, as you pretend, that the Lord's design in permitting them to be brought here was that they might be converted and prepared to carry the Gospel back to Africa, repeal your laws forbidding them to be taught; give them the time, means, and motives necessary to improve them and send them back full handed and well instructed to the land of their fathers." It is doubtful if a stronger or clearer anti-slavery argument was ever made on this continent. This is enough about a book that was never printed. Its author was not, strictly speaking, an anti-slavery leader. He did not stand out as a teacher of opposition to slavery. He was not a leader. But he wrote one of the strongest arraignments of slavery in the abstract that ever appeared. His book was a sermon expanded. Along with the manuscript I found a manuscript sermon on the same text (Exodus, 10: 8), showing whence came the book. This book was not given to remove slavery, but to cure the wound made by forcible emancipation. When the South writhed in bitterness under its hard fate, it would have been a good thing for its peace of mind if it could have been made to see that the extinction of slavery was for the best. Had Dr. Caruthers lived his attempt in this direction would, no doubt, have been delivered to the public. It would, perhaps, have failed immediately. Ultimately, it would have reached those for whom it was intended. Today most people in the South acquiesce in the conclusion that slavery was an evil. But there are few who understand why it was an evil. No better foundation for the study of present social conditions in the South can be had than a complete survey of the...

Excerpt from Slavery in the State of North Carolina The triumph Of the cotton aristocracy did not come in a day. In 1800 North Carolina was, except certain sections in the far East, in the grasp of the small farm system. There were then many people in the State who Opposed slavery. Some of them were statesmen who, like Jefferson and Wash ington, looked to the day' of freedom. They were strong enough to Offset and keep down a certain thorough-going tendency to deal with slaves in a summary manner, which from the first was not wanting with some legislators. But as the large estate prevail-ed, the pro-slavery influence became stronger. The arguments on this side were natur ally aggressive; and those on the other side were conserva tive. The former caught the support of the younger men in politics. As time passed the older party was weakened325] Introduction.

Excerpt from An Address to the People of North Carolina, on the Evils of Slavery Nor will doctrine of the injustice of absolute slavery lose any of its real weight by the considera tion of its having the sanction of the Law, if we consider that all men are but 'subordinate beings, who are held bound to obey their Creator accor ding to his own Laws, which he hath ordained, and by which he designs his creatures to be gover ned, among which that denominated the Law of nature (which is nevertheless a divine Law) may and ought to be regarded as having been instituted for the particular purpose to which we now apply it, and to which it has been applied by men of. Sound judgment and uncorrupted principles in every age; and to which it was particularly applied by the Fa thers of our glorious liberty, as they have abundant ly shown.* Nor dare any one doubt the validity of the Law of nature, any more than the right of its AI mighty giver to a primary part in the government of mankind. It follows consequently that the principles set forth in the Law of nature for the government of mankind are primary or constitutional principles, and that the Laws enacted by men for their own government should harmonize with and acquiesce in them.
