SLAVERY RELATED DOCUMENTS
a pair of 19th century documents related to slavery and
the opposition to post Civil War period emancipation. The first
being a hand written copy (circa 1854-1859) of James Watkins “I’m On
My Way To Canada”. In eight verses, the poem describes James Robert
Watkins’ escape from slavery to Canada and then onto England where
“man’s a man by law…I’ll no more dread the auctioneer, nor fear the
master’s frown…”. The poem is signed “M.J. Harris, E. Lewis”. A
later notation states: “Written for Eliza Lewis Burr, age 7, 1854”.
James Robert Watkins (circa 1821-) escaped to Hartford, Connecticut,
in May of 1844. He was married to Mary Eliza Wells, a free black
woman, in April of 1847. Fearing that he would be recaptured, he
escaped to England in 1851. While in England, Watkins wrote two
books: one describing life as a slave, the other a book of poetry.
Not long after, his father-in-law secured his freedom. He then
returned to the United States where he continued writing and
speaking out against slavery. The second document is a printed
broadsheet (circa 1873) with the banner “To The White Men of
Delaware”. The 13.5”x10” printed document attempts to persuade all
white men of Delaware to vote against impending state legislation
that would provide equal rights for all “negros”. Estimate
$300-$500 |
