Barrow, in whose days (1798) the price of slaves had gone up considerably, tells a story showing the revengeful spirit of the Malay. A slave, thinking that he had served his master sufficiently long and with great fidelity, and having also paid him several sums of money, was tempted to demand his liberty. He was met with a refusal. He straightway went and murdered his fellow - slave. He was taken up and brought before the Court, acknowledged that the slave he had mur- dered was his friend, but ...said that the best form of revenge he could think of was not to murder his master, but to deprive him of a slave worth the value of a thousand rix-dollars {i. E. , £l87 10s. ) and of another thousand by bringing himself to the gallows ! The Creole slaves were sold for a higher price than the others, and were often 'acquainted with a trade, ' when their price became exorbitant. They were clothed properly, but went barefooted. Twenty to thirty slaves were generally found in 28 THE CAPE PENINSULA one house.
