The apprentice, debilitated by sickness, dragged off twenty-five miles on foot to Morant Bay, mounted on the wheel, is unable to keep the step with the stronger ones, slips off and hangs by the wrists, and his flesh is mangled and torn by the wheel.
The apprentices frequently called at our lodgings to complain to Mr.C.
of the hard treatment of their masters.

Among the numerous distressing cases which we witnessed, we shall never forget that of a poor little negro boy, of about twelve, who presented himself one afternoon before Mr.C., with a complaint against his master for violently beating him.

A gash was cut in his head, and the blood had flowed freely.

He fled from his master, and came to Mr.C.for refuge.

He belonged to A.Ross, Esq., of Mulatto Run estate.
