Aprašymas
"To the pump with him! And see that he has a double dose of it!" The words were spoken in a tone of command, earnest and angry. They were addressed to the overseer of a cotton-plantation not far from Vicksburg, in the State of Mississippi, the speaker being Blount Blackadder, a youth aged eighteen, and son to Squire Blackadder, the owner of the plantation. Who was to receive the double douche? Near by stood a personage to whom the words evidently pointed. He was also a youth, not very different either in age or size from him who had given the order; though his tawny skin and short crisped hair bespoke him of a different race-in short, a mulatto. And the time-for it is a tale of twenty years ago-along with other attendant circumstances, proclaimed him a slave of the plantation.
