first edition. While not generally known, Canada, the refuge of many American slaves, was a slave-holding state in the 18th century. "This paper, read in part before the Nova Scotia Historical Society on March 18, 1898, is an attempt to supply a missing chapter in Canadian history--a sombre [sic] and unattractive chapter it may be, but necessary nevertheless to the completeness of our records." Work, page 341.
