In 1856, the mistress ofthese remaining ones died; and in settling up her estate, it becamenecessary to sell all her servants at auction with her other property. This was the decision of the Court; and commissioners were appointed tocarry out the sale, on the 1st of January, 1857. I felt now, that I hadgone as far as I could in getting my family free; for I felt verycertain that my daughter, about whom I felt the greatest anxiety, wouldsell at auction for more money than I could get any of my f...riends inBaltimore to give for her; and I saw no way to do any thing for the twoboys. I thought I had no chance of raising any more money myself, and Icould only pray the Lord to grant us His grace, to reconcile us and thechildren, to whatever might come upon us. But before the end of theyear, when the sale was to take place, the time was extended six monthsby the Court. My hopes now began to revive again; I began to think thatif I could be at the sale, my daughter, though a grown up girl mightpossibly not bring over six or seven hundred dollars.
