What a superb letter!
I note that the master was required to provide medical care to his slaves and did not charge them. The letter agrees that the costs of such provided services should be deducted from past unpaid wages. As should lodging, food and clothing. The former slave is absolutely entitled to the balance of whatever they should have been paid for their labors.
Interestingly is how easily slaves accept that it is duty of the master to provide things like medical care, housing, food, clothing to slaves.
Black people haven't changed much.

We're all equal. Some are just more equal than others.
Yeah... just look at how Downtrodden us Whiteys are....look at the average socioeconomic status of the average white person.... it's a shame how unequally we are treated...We should have not only a month, but two months solely dedicated to our plight?
I put up a speech by a man called Frederick Douglass. Dedicating a monument to President Lincoln.
No young blacks on the board knew who he was. Enough said.
It was a very sad moment for me.
Would you like to counter me sir or madame?
That statement right there tells me we DEFINENTLY need a Black History Month.
A Black History Month is only as good as those choosing the historical figures. Frederick Douglass doesn't make the cut, not even to black people.

Frederick Douglass, the escaped former slave, self-taught author and editor, and leading abolitionist orator, thought not. "Take the Constitution according to its plain reading," he challenged the Rochester Ladies Anti-Slavery Society on July 5, 1852, in Rochester, New York. "I defy the presentation of a single pro-slavery clause in it." In fact, Douglass told the crowd gathered to hear his Independence Day address, "Interpreted as it ought to be interpreted, the Constitution is a glorious liberty document."
