Highlights criticism of enslavers and their source of labor. "We at the North work for our own support, with no dishonor and with essential benefit to ourselves...; and the gentlemen of the South need not think it too much to go and do likewise. If they are ashamed of labor... we may be ashamed of them." First edition. Printed by W & S. B. Ives Observer Press.
