Let them load him with English hospitality, fill his purse, and send him back as fast as possible to the land of his early bondage, of his matured freedom, and to the people to whose character and capabilities he does so much honour."-- _Christian Witness_, October, 1849. "The principal portion of the 'Tract,' as Mr.Pennington modestly styles his book, consists of an autobiography of his early life as a slave, and of his escape from bondage, and final settlement in New York as a Presbyterian Minister.
His adventures and hair-breadth escapes invest the narrative with startling interest, and excite the deepest sympathies of the reader."-- _Nonconformist_, September, 26th, 1849. "Believing that by the purchase of this little book our readers will confer a benefit on the writer, at the same time that they become possessed of a narrative of deep interest, we give it our most cordial recommendation."-- _Teetotal Times_, October, 1849. * * * * * London: CHARLES GILPIN, 5, Bishopsgate Street Without..
