dc.description.abstract	Kemble, Mrs. Frances Anne (Late Butler). The Views Of Judge Woodward And Bishop Hopkins On Negro Slavery At The South, Illustrated From The Journal Of A Residence On A Georgian Plantation. "The next objection to the Slavery of the Southern States, is its presumed cruelty, because the refractory slave is punished with corporeal correction. But our Northern law allows the same in the case of children and apprentices." "The Savior himself used a scourge of small cords when he drove the money-changers fro the Temple. Are our modern philanthropists more merciful than Christ, and wiser than the Almighty?" Bishop Hopkins. Pict. wraps with the iconic photographic view of a badly-whipped slave. 1863. 32 pgs. "The diary from which the following extracts are taken was kept in the winter and spring of 1838-39, .... The narrative is in the form of letters written by Frances Anne Kemble (then Mrs. Butler) to a friend in the North. ... No argument will reach the man who is not convinced by this "remarkable revelation of the interior life of Slavery." The man with multiple keloid scars on his back shown on the cover of this pamphlet is Private Gordon, an ex-slave who joined the Union forces after a daring escape, he had received a nearly fatal beating on Christmas Day, 1862. The text of this pamphlet is drawn from Frances Anne (Fanny) Kemble's noted work, Residence on a Georgia Plantation." Kemble, an Englishwoman, moved to the Georgia Sea Islands after inheriting several plantations and numerous slaves. Her shock and disgust at their appalling treatment caused an end to her marriage. (William Gladstone's "Men of Color" p. 78-79.) Two small tapes at top and bottom of spine. Overall a very nice copy of a scarce piece. Thompson p. 302. $785.00.	en_US
