This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 3: July, 1845 Mr. Latrobe then referred to the differences which had at times taken place between the Societies and the Missionaries which were now happily, terminated, and proceeded to detail circumstances shewing the internal economy of the Colony, trials in Court, &c. &c., which space does not per mit us to follow. It is not pretended, said Mr. L., that we have a Colony in which every man is rich, in which there are not instances of individual poverty and want. With the materials which have been employed to found Maryland in Liberia, it would be strange if it were otherwise. But, looking to the general result, there is no room for any other emotion than that of profound gratitude to Heaven for the signal favour with which the operations of the Society have been blessed.

Book Maryland Colonization Journal  1845  Vol  2  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Maryland Colonization Journal 1845 Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by Maryland State Colonization Society and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, 1845, Vol. 2 This policy and its results must enter largely into the history of Maryland. Its success must mainly depend upon the ability and skill of the emigrants to found such a nation as will accomplish the end in view: and this in its turn depends on the oft mooted question as to the comparative intellect of the two races, the white and the coloured. To decide this, facts are important; and not one more conclusive exists than the abilities and character of Benjamin Banneker. Whether, therefore, as a matter of mere curiosity only, or as a fact from which important inferences for present action are to be drawn, a memoir of the individual in question should possess interest for our association. Benjamin Banneker was born in Baltimore County, near the village of Eilicotts Mills, in the year 1732. His father was a native African, and his mother the child of natives of Africa; so that to no admixture of the blood of the white man was he indebted for his peculiar and extraordinary abilities. His father was a slave when he married; but his wife, who was a free woman and possessed of great energy and industry, very soon afterwards purchased his freedom. Banneker's mother was named Morton before her marriage, and belonged to a family remarkable for its intelligence. When upwards of 70, she was still very active; and it is remembered of her, that at this advanced age she made nothing of catching her chickens when wanted by running them down. A nephew of her's, Greenbury Morion, was a person of some note, notwithstanding his complexion. Prior to 1809, free people of colour, possessed of a certain property qualification, voted in Maryland. In this year a law was passed restricting the right of voting to free white males. Morton was ignorant of the law till he offered to vote at the polls in Baltimore County; and it is said that when his vote was refused, he addressed the crowd in a strain of true and passionate eloquence, which kept the audience, that the election had assembled for him, in breathless attention while he spoke. The joint labour of the elder Banneker and his wife enabled them to purchase a small farm, which continued after their death in the possession of their son. The farm was a tract of one hundred acres, the half of a larger tract called "Stout," and was conveyed by Richard Gist to Robert Banna-ky, as the name was then spelt, and Benjamin Bannaky his son, (who was then but five years old) on the 10th March, 1737, for the consideration of 7,000 lbs. of tobacco. At the date of Banneker's birth, his parents, although within ten miles of Baltimore, lived almost in a wilderness. In 1727, five years before, the site of Baltimore was the farm of John Flemming, on which, in that year, the legislature authorized a town to be laid out. The view of this town, in 1754, with which we are all familiar, does not exhibit more than twenty houses, straggling over the eminences on the right bank of Jones' Falls. In 1740, Baltimore had been surrounded with a board fence to protect it against the Indians. All this is proper to be remembered, in order that the difficulties against which Banneker had to struggle may be fairly understood. In 1732, Elkridge landing was of more consequence than Baltimore.

And whether this is not the least compensation we are able to make to the poor Africans for the injuries they are constantly receiving by this unrighteous practice.

This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 2: January, 1845 The natives, notwithstanding the evils which the slave trade inflicted upon them, were infatuated with it. In 1821, the agents of the Coloniza tion Society attempted to purchase a tract for their first settlement at Grand Bassa. The only Obstacle was, the refusal of the people to make any Con cession towards an abandonment of that traffic. In December of that year, a contract with that indispensable condition was made for Cape Mesurado. The first colonists took possession, January 7, 1822. In November of the same year, and again in December, the natives attacked the Colony in great numbers, and with an obstinate determination to exterminate the settlers and renew the trade at that accustomed spot. In April and May, 1823, Mr. Ashmun, governor of the Colony, went on business along the coast about 150 miles, to Settra Kroo. One century ago, he remarks, a great part of this line of coast was populous, cleared of trees, and under cultiva tion. It is now covered with a dense and almost continuous forest. This is almost wholly a second growth; commonly distinguished from the origi nal by the profusion of brambles and brushwood, which abounds amongst the larger trees, and renders the woods entirely impervious, even to the natives, until paths are opened by the bill-hook.
