1 My first master's name was Anthony.
2 My master was Colonel Lloyd's clerk and superintendent.
3 I was not allowed to make any inquiries of my master concerning it.
4 Why master was so careful of her, may be safely left to conjecture.
5 I spent two years of childhood on this plantation in my old master's family.
6 She died when I was about seven years old, on one of my master's farms, near Lee's Mill.
7 He was asked by Colonel Lloyd and my old master, why he resorted to this extraordinary expedient.
8 This occurrence took place very soon after I went to live with my old master, and under the following circumstances.
9 My master's son-in-law, Captain Auld, was master of the vessel; she was otherwise manned by the colonel's own slaves.
10 My master's family consisted of two sons, Andrew and Richard; one daughter, Lucretia, and her husband, Captain Thomas Auld.
11 The poor man was then informed by his overseer that, for having found fault with his master, he was now to be sold to a Georgia trader.
12 He was just proud enough to demand the most debasing homage of the slave, and quite servile enough to crouch, himself, at the feet of the master.
13 The opinion was also whispered that my master was my father; but of the correctness of this opinion, I know nothing; the means of knowing was withheld from me.
14 The colonel, after ascertaining where the slave belonged, rode on; the man also went on about his business, not dreaming that he had been conversing with his master.
15 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.
16 The most I had to do was to drive up the cows at evening, keep the fowls out of the garden, keep the front yard clean, and run of errands for my old master's daughter, Mrs. Lucretia Auld.
17 I have been frequently asked, when a slave, if I had a kind master, and do not remember ever to have given a negative answer; nor did I, in pursuing this course, consider myself as uttering what was absolutely false; for I always measured the kindness of my master by the standard of kindness set up among slaveholders around us.
