SECTION FIVE

Document 5: George Whitefield, "To the Inhabitants of Maryland, Virginia, North and South-Carolina, concerning their Negroes," 1740.

NOTE: This document is going to be hard to read, primarily because of the printing style. Notice that Benjamin Franklin printed this pamphlet - yes, that Benjamin Franklin!!! In the 18th century, printers used a letter called the "Long S."

The Long S looks like a lower-case "f." If you look at the first page of the Letter III (page 13), read the first four words - "As I lately paffed." Paffed is really "passed." The lower-case s is rendered as an "f." You will have to pay attention as you read.

1. Why, according to Whitefield, does God have a "quarrel" with the people of the southern colonies? (pg. 13)

2. To the treatment of what animals does Whitefield compare the treatment of slaves by their southern masters? (pg. 13)

3. What has been Whitefield's reaction to seeing the beautiful landscape of the southern farms and plantations? (pg. 14)

4. Why, according to Whitefield, are many masters keeping their slaves ignorant of Christianity? (page 15, top)

5. What, according to Whitefield, has recently happened in South Carolina, a sign of God's displeasure with them? (page 16)
