![]() I wish I could commit to paper the feelings with which I beheld it. It was the blood-stained gate, the entrance to the hell of slavery, through which I was about to pass. It was the first of a long series of such outrages, of which I was doomed to be a witness and a participant. I never shall forget it whilst I remember any thing. I was quite a child, but I well remember it. I remember the first time I ever witnessed this horrible exhibition. He would whip her to make her scream, and whip her to make her hush and not until overcome by fatigue, would he cease to swing the blood-clotted cowskin. There is probably more enough of you ressources on the market either way. Also I don't think the AI will import more resources from you when you are on Free Trade compared to Export Focus. The louder she screamed, the harder he whipped and where the blood ran fastest, there he whipped longest. Export Focus is also a good mix for exporting rubber to Italy, and the Rest of the Axis and using the rubber yourself for producint airplanes. No words, no tears, no prayers, from his gory victim, seemed to move his iron heart from its bloody purpose. I have often been awakened at the dawn of day by the most heart-rending shrieks of an own aunt of mine, whom he used to tie up to a joist, and whip upon her naked back till she was literally covered with blood. He would at times seem to take great pleasure in whipping a slave. ![]() He was a cruel man, hardened by a long life of slave-holding. It required extraordinary barbarity on the part of an overseer to affect him. Master, however, was not a humane slaveholder. I have known him to cut and slash the women's heads so horribly, that even master would be enraged at his cruelty, and would threaten to whip him if he did not mind himself. He always went armed with a cowskin and a heavy cudgel. Plummer was a miserable drunkard, a profane swearer, and a savage monster. His farms and slaves were under the care of an overseer. He owned two or three farms, and about thirty slaves. I mean something similar to when you do the F10 to export a political map, it would be nice to do something similar for. He was not considered a rich slaveholder. He was generally called Captain Anthony-a title which, I presume, he acquired by sailing a craft on the Chesapeake Bay.
