[In an 1858 treatise defending the institution of slavery, Thomas R.R. Cobb of Georgia penned these lines: The negro [sic] is not malicious. His disposition is to forgive injuries, and to forget the past. His gratitude is sometimes enduring, and his fidelity often remarkable. His passions and affections are seldom very strong, and are never very lasting…. A few days blot out the memory of his most bitter bereavement. His natural affection is not strong, and consequently he is cruel to his own offspring, and suffers little by separation from them.1]
