Slaves Return from Liberia Report Embezzlement Accusations
The Farmville Journal recalls two former Liberia emigrants who were emancipated by Subp Wistson of Prince Edward Sound, with a $4,000 fund to transport sixty slaves to Liberia. They recount deception by Colonization agents, inflated provisions, and land promises unmet, noting mistreatment and alleged complicity by colony leaders. They express regret and claim freedom in Africa is worse than slavery in the United States.
