"The Negro," He said,
-
"Is but a grownup child and must be governed as a child.
-
The master occupies toward him the place of parent or guardian.
-
Like a wild horse he must be caught, tamed and domesticated.
-

-
or by men acting under his immediate care and direction,
-
as in the instance of Moses and Joshua.
-
Nowhere in the Old or New Testament do we
-
find the institution condemned,
-
but frequently recognized and enforced."
