To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" James," said he to a colored servant of middle age, " you have served me faith- fully, you have deserved your freedom, and I now offer it to you, advising you to go to Liberia." " Will master go to Liberia?" said the servant. " No, James, I cannot leave home." " Then if master can't go, I can't ; all I want is to be as I have been, and live with master." If' then, the servants of good Southern masters are useful, happy, and contented, why are we not to consider that the problem is already sol...ved, and theirs is, in reality, the true position of the American Africans? It might be so, if all masters, like these, were, in their treatment to them, governed by kindness and Christianity ; and if death and change were not the order of the world. And, indeed, it is not our voice which woald ever alter these affectionate relations between good masters and good servants — who, indeed, ought not to be called slaves and slave-holders — but we wish the whole system to become modified, so that the barbarous laws of slavery, under which the race are liable to great abuses, many actually suffering them, may be abrogated and suc- ceeded by those of a civilized character, in which the true rights of the black man shall be recognised and duly guarded by law.
