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).
