Uncle Tom's Cabin (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Uncle Tom's CabinVery many years ago, instead of having servants to wait upon them and work for them, people used to have slaves. These slaves were paid no wages. Their mas ters gave them only food and clothes in return for their work.When any one wanted servants he went to market to buy them, just as nowadays we buy horses and cows, or even tables and chairs.If the poor Slaves were bought by kind pe'ople they would be quite happy, work willingly for their masters and mistresses, and even love them. But often cruel peo ple bought slaves and used to beat them and be unkind to them in many ways.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
