Another example of not only Mr. Washington’s views but the views of others was when a slave had requested a loan and had been paying his master back. But when the proclamation came out, according to that he was not obligated to pay back that dept which was procured during slavery.

In America freed slaves hoped to be their own masters. Touching again
