Twenty-Two Years a Slave, and Forty Years a Freeman

CHAPTER XXXVII
37/37

But thanks to a kind and all-sustaining Providence, complete success has at last crowned my exertions.

I strove hard to command it; and I leave it to others to say whether I have _deserved_ it or not.
The terms upon which I have obtained my grant of land will be noticed in a public address, which I shall forward with this letter.
Since my arrival in this place, I have been confined by sickness; but am now convalescent, and shall visit my friends to the eastward, as soon as circumstances will permit.

I cannot close this communication without an expression of my sincere thanks to those kind friends who rendered me assistance in defraying the expenses of my last Mexican tour.

Their favors will be most gratefully remembered, and I shall feel myself under additional obligations to labor for the melioration of the condition of the poor and suffering _slave_.
In the next number of the "Genius of Universal Emancipation," I shall insert the names of those who contributed to aid me in the prosecution of my enterprise; and correct information relative to all proceedings therein, will be given in the pages of that work, as the business connected with it progresses.
I am, most respectfully, your Friend, B.LUNDY.
N.& B.PAUL, AUSTIN STEWARD, REV.

J.SHARP.
Nashville, 5th Mo., 1835.
THE END..
