Letter from a Cotton Planter in North Carolina Discussing the Use of Slaves As Collateral

1860réf. 5563Roxboro N.C.: January 15 1860. Good. 2pp. Wrinkled previously folded. A few minor losses at folds not affecting text. Two half-inch closed tears from edges. Light toning and foxing. After arriving in Roxboro North Carolina in mid-January 1860 planter J.C. Barnett writes to his friend and business partner a Colonel Henry to complain about the tight money situation in the state which has forced him essentially to pawn a slave in order to raise cash: "I found monetary matters distressingly stringent in the City and was entirely unable to use the Graham bond at all. I had hoped to get it off at 8 per cent per annum but could not do it at double that amount the consequence was that after making the last payment on my land which was due 1st Jan 61 with the 3 thousand dollar draft I did not have enough left to pay expenses home and had to deposit a negro to get money to leave the city. So you can judge my situation." Furthermore he has other unpaid debts that he hopes to settle with future cotton sales: "I gave R.H. Williams a draft for 93 dollars also Messrs Lea & Cheatham of Louisville one for 111 dollars and owing to the circumstances just mentioned was unable to meet them. You will do me a favor when you see these gentlemen to explain the reason. When you sell my cotton after paying Mr. Batt and yourself the expenses if there is a remainder please apply it to my Louisville and Williams debt. Also Mr. Gratiot has a claim of an hundred dollars. I will write to these gentlemen and tell to apply to you when you sell my cotton." Interesting detail on economic difficulties in the south just prior to the Civil War. January 15 unknown

1844réf. 13105St. Genevieve County MO: January 18 1844. 4pp. on a single folded sheet. Original folds minor wear. Very good condition. A sobering manuscript inventory from the estate of Richard Maddin following his death in Missouri in 1843 detailing his "slaves and other personal" property. The inventory begins by listing the enslaved persons by name along with an assignation of value for each of them as such: "1 Negro man named Smith $600. 1 Negro man named Sandy $10. 1 Negro woman and child named Margaret and Jason $400." The inventory then goes on to list the other property beginning with a long list of livestock followed by equipment household goods and so forth. The document is certified and witnessed by a number of local citizens who attest to the "full and perfect inventory of the goods chattles and personal estate" of the deceased Mr. Maddin. The reasoning is unclear why the second listed slave Sandy was worth only $10. January 18 unknown
