Abstract:
Letter from one slaveholder to another, stating that another man named John Langhorn has requested to hire an enslaved man named Charles. Langhorn intended for Charles to work in the “mash room” of a whiskey distillery, specifying that the room is “entirely disconnected from the whiskey room he could not if he was disposed get any thing to drink.” Langhorn offered $110 to hire Charles for 1850.
