The Anglo-Saxon law. ? recognized the liberation of slaves, and placed them under legal protection. The ' libf^ral feelings of our ancestors to their enslaved domestics are not only evinced in the frequent manumissions, but also in 1 the generous gifis which they appear to have made them. The grants of land from masters to their servants were very common ; gilds or social confederations, were established. The tradesmen of the Anglo-SaxQns were, for the most part, men in a servile state ; but by... degrees the manumission of slaves increased the num- ber of the independent part of the lower orders. " When the statute 1st Edward \T. C. 3. Was made, which ordained, that all idle vagabonds should be made slaves, and fed upon bread, water, or small drink, and re- fuse of meat ; — should wear a ring round their necks, arms, or legs ; and should be compelled by beating, chaining, or other- wise, to perform the work assigned them, were it ever so vile ; — the spirit of the na- tion could not brook this condition, even ia the most abandoned rogues, and there- fore this statute was repealed in two years at'terwards, 3rd and 4th of Edward VI.
