 * R - Slave

Dear Journal,

Working on the master's __plantation__ was hard today. The owner bought a few new slaves today. They looked very scared when they got here. A couple of them will be working as house slaves in the big house. They don't look strong enough to work in the fields. I think the year is __1708__, but because of the __slave codes__, I'm not allowed to learn how to read. I had to show the other new slaves where in the fields they would be working. The __Overseer__ (my boss) is a very mean man. He makes us work from early in the morning until after dark, because he sometimes gets some of the plantation's profits. The harder we work, the more money the plantation will make and then the more money the overseer could get. We are planting tobacco and rice. Even after we've worked in the fields all day we have to do our own chores at our own cabins. Our cabins are in a area called "__slave row__". Sometimes we have secret meetings to plan our escape. If it works, we'll be free men in the North. **
