Excerpt from Slavery in South Carolina and the Ex-Slaves, or the Port Royal Mission Surely, there is aline of right somewhere; surely, there are principles of right necessarily eternal, sin'ce God is; surely, these principles cannot change; surely, circum stances, cannot reach or affect them; surely, there must be laws enforcing those principles; surely, as the prin ples are eternal, the laws cannot change; surely, they must have the strength of the Administration, as apledge of their execution; surely, they must respect all beings alike, must apply to the minutest action. Surely, then, every action must be with, or against those laws, must com pel their eternal approval, or penalty, every action calling upon the laws of eternal justice for the well done, or the penalty. Surely that award, must be as eternal, as the sin, and those laws. Surely a Mediator makes no escape from them. He is not the minister of sin. He only makes obedi ence possible to us. He establishes, the law, dies! That we be forgiven, cleared of its past records, cleansed, and com pelled to break it no more, through the power that death provides. All this adds awful weight, and dignity, to that law, renders disobedience an eternal insult, not only to the law, 'but to that Mediator, that tenderest grace, that costliest sacrifice. SO that disobedience is an insult, not only to the law, which cannot forgive, over look, Or fail in penalty, but to that grace, that death, that Offering Of soul for sin. Surely, then, God, his law, his sacrifice, cannot be slighted, without full penalty. Surely that penalty must be exacted alike Of each rational being. Man must be left free to break that law, else no free obedience could he render, from his not being free, or able to disobey. Evidently, when he knows that there is grace provided for him, and Offered freely, and availabl he is alone responsible for having that grace.

Excerpt from The Experience of a Slave in South Carolina IN aiming to arrest the attention of the reader, ere he proceeds to the unvarnished, but ower true tale of John Andrew Jackson, the escaped Carolinian slave, it might be fairly said that truth was stranger than fiction, and that the experience of slavery produces a full exhibition of all that is vile and devilish in human nature. Mrs. Stowe, as a virtuous woman, dared only allude to some of the hellish works of slavery - it was too foul to sully her pen; but the time is come when iniquity should no longer be hid: and that evil which Wilberforce and Clarkson exposed, and of which Wesley said it was the sum of all human villanies, must now be laid bare in all its hellish atrocities. The half has not yet been told; but appalling as are the statements made, yet when the fiercest organized effort to extend the monster evil of N orth-american slavery is being made, every patriot is called on to sympathize over the woes and sufferings of human kind, and plead for freedom and liberty.

The Federal Writers? Project, part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration of the 1930s, collected interviews from over 3500 ex-slaves throughout the United States, including 365 former South Carolina slaves. These narratives are an invaluable resource to those interested in resistance by the last generation of South Carolinians held in bondage. This thesis tells us about the separate worlds inhabited by the Palmetto State's slaves and their owners, and describes, often in the slaves? own words, the resistance precipitated by the friction between these worlds.

This award-winning study presents an engaging account of the attempt at reconstruction that occurred in the Sea Islands of South Carolina during the beginning of the Civil War. Serving as a kind of dress rehearsal for Reconstruction, the Port Royal Experiment not only helped to shape federal policy for Reconstruction, but it also influenced the nation by adding to the initial war aim of the Union, the eventual commitment to freedom, and the still-unfulfilled commitment to equality.
