To My Old Master.

In August of 1865, a Colonel P.H. Anderson of Big Spring, Tennessee, 
wrote to his former slave, Jourdan Anderson, and requested that he come 
back to work on his farm. Jourdan — who, since being emancipated, had 
moved to Ohio, found paid work, and was now supporting his family — 
responded spectacularly by way of the letter seen below (a letter which, 
according to newspapers at the time, he dictated).
