Summary

"The Anti-Slavery Examiner, Part 3 of 4" by the American Anti-Slavery Society, gives an incisive look into the horrors of American slavery through firsthand accounts. The writing, created in the 1800s, uses observations and stories from people like Nehemiah Caulkins, including those who owned slaves or lived near them, to paint a vivid picture of the abuse and suffering. It talks about the violence, starvation, and mental pain that slaves went through on a daily basis. The book also shines a light on the terrible punishments for small mistakes, the lack of food and clothing, and bad living conditions. The stories show how cruel slavery was, hoping to make people realize how wrong it was and support getting rid of it.
