Letter of Note

That is one amazing letter. So polite yet so cutting

The title should read Letters of Nte.

Yes - a brilliant letter vampire.

Just read the letter to my DH. What a piece of history. The writer is such an inspiration. To be able to reply in such an articulate manner to someone with the bare faced nerve of his previous 'master' (and the behaviour of his family).

Just about sums it up, doesn't it?

Thank you for posting that Lucky

Very dignified, isn't it.

I went to the International Slavery Museum last August, that's well worth a visit too if you're in the area.

Thanks luckygirl. A brilliant letter.

Thank you for that link Luckygirl

Very thought-provoking.

I came across this some time ago. Isn't it wonderful? Thanks for posting it Lucky, so good to read it through again. One of the best letters in history. Wouldn't we all have loved to see the 'master's' reaction?!
