Caption:
A northern man goes south, sits at a table loaded from the slave's
unpaid toil,—who eats his corn bread in the sun,—marries a
slaveholder, and then—finds out that slavery is a divine institution,
and defends it in southern and northern
pulpits, religious newspapers, &c. For examples,—consult memory or
observation.
