I never thought I would see the day that I would have to sell Tom to those rascally traders. AND Eliza's son too! 😕So much for being in debt..

# data[].attributes.body
He's the most loyal and Christian slave I know

# data[].attributes.body
Tom however is a fine slave and would be great by himself. just sayin..

# data[].attributes.body
He is great.. let me know what your wife says about the boy though.

# data[].attributes.body
Of course! I completely understand. However, I'm a business man whose in a hurry. Text me as soon as possible letting me know what Mrs. Shelby says

# data[].attributes.body
Alright. I'll text or ft you later tonight letting you know my decision

# data[].attributes.body
So are you going to trade him or what?

# data[].attributes.body
I need to discuss this with my wife..

# data[].attributes.body
I got a couple friends in the slave business who want to raise some a couple handsome boys for the market.

# data[].attributes.body
What do you even wan him for?

# data[].attributes.body
Well let me have the boy then!

# data[].attributes.body
She'll be walking around just like this. Forgetting all about the slave girl

# data[].attributes.body
If I just said no, that means no!

# data[].attributes.body
Look! Women are dumb and always say such things. Just show her how much jewelry, watches, and Louis Vuitton bags she can get and I bet you she'll have a change in heart !

# data[].attributes.body
She wouldn't trade her for her weight in gold TBH

# data[].attributes.body
Wow he's great! Look at how he caught that orange! AND THAT GAL! Who was she? You can make a fortune from her in New Orleans. I've seen negro girls like that go for over a thousand 👀

# data[].attributes.body
I'm going to FaceTime you so I can see him

# data[].attributes.body
Come, now, if that ain't doing the thing up about the rightest!

# data[].attributes.body
That chap's a case, I'll promise. Tell you what, Shelby, fling in that chap, and I'll settle the business.

# data[].attributes.body
Bravo, little 'un!

# data[].attributes.body
Nah, I'm not looking to make money off of her. My wife wouldn't go for that..

# data[].attributes.body
ugh.. here's a video of him dancing around with the other slaves and some of the neighbors sons

# data[].attributes.body
Hold on, my slave boy Harry is running around BRB

# data[].attributes.body
None that I'm willing to part with! Look Mr. Haley, the only reason I'm agreeing to part with Tom is because I'm pressed for money. TBH I don't like parting with any of my slaves

# data[].attributes.body
You don't have a little boy or girl you can throw in the deal?

# data[].attributes.body
This year is a leetle too hard

# data[].attributes.body
Well then.. how do you want to trade?

# data[].attributes.body
Tom is my most loyal and trusted slave and I'm very saddened to part with him. Tom alone should cover the entire debt!

# data[].attributes.body
You haven't met one and thats a fact

# data[].attributes.body
How many slaves have you met that are as trustworthy and loyal as that??

# data[].attributes.body
But Tom by himself is not enough.

# data[].attributes.body
Anyways religion had him so whipped and obedient. So yes, I do believe religion is valeyable in a n*gger when they really understand and its genuine.

# data[].attributes.body
I took him to New Orleans a lot. Oh it was a great sound to hear that critter pray and he was so quiet an gentle like. He did everything for me, just like Tom! AND I bought him for cheap from a man that needed to sell out

# data[].attributes.body
I had this one fellow around this same time last year

# data[].attributes.body
TOM IS THE REAL DEAL! Last fall I let him go to Cincinnati alone to do business for me and bring back $500. Tom came right back with the money despite some low fellows trying to convince him to flee to Canada.

# data[].attributes.body
He got religion at a camp-meeting four years ago. So you know he's to be trusted and will stay obedient.

# data[].attributes.body
Some folks don't believe there is pious niggers, but I do! Let me tell you a quick story

# data[].attributes.body
YOU mean honest as n*ggers go.

# data[].attributes.body
No seriously! I trust him with my life. He's extremely obedient, sensibile, steady..

# data[].attributes.body
Look here he is right now! Keeping the rest of rest of my slaves in check

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think you understand what kind of slave is. He's top notch! Honest, capable, steady, and manages my whole farm like a clock!

# data[].attributes.body
Harry? who is Harry? What does he look like? Im tryna see something

# data[].attributes.body
I can not make a trade that way. No way!

# data[].attributes.body
Mr. Haley...

# data[].attributes.body
That's the way I'm going to arrange the matter!
