Letter of Note

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?!

Thank you for that link Luckygirl

Very thought-provoking.

Thanks luckygirl. A brilliant letter.

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.

Thank you for posting that Lucky

Just about sums it up, doesn't it?

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).

The title should read Letters of Nte.

Yes - a brilliant letter vampire.

That is one amazing letter. So polite yet so cutting
