What God means to do with them, no one can tell.

That He has been doing a marvellous work of mercy for the poor creatures is manifest.

They were slaves at home; they have changed their situation to their benefit.

I have made up my mind to leave this great problem--the destiny of the blacks--to my Maker, and, in the mean time, pray in behalf of the owners, that they may have a heart to act toward them according to the golden rule.
