The African Preacher. An Authentic Narrative by William Spotswood White.
The subject of it was a native of Africa. When about
seven years of age, he was kidnapped, brought to this country, and
enslaved. He was supposed to belong to one of the last cargoes of
this sort, ever landed on the shores of Virginia. He was purchased
at Osborne's, on James' river, by a Mr. Stewart, and was
subsequently taken to the county of Nottoway, Virginia, where the
whole of his long and interesting life was spent.
