Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick

met her at the door,-a woman of the kindest heart and finest
feelings. She had never had a slave under her control
previously to myself, and prior to her marriage she had been
dependent upon her own industry for a living. She was by
trade a weaver, and by constant application to her business,
she had been in a good degree preserved from the blighting
and dehumanizing effects of slavery. I was utterly
astonished at her goodness.
