After reading chapter two i was sad. This chapter was very sad. It was talking about how the slaves got their allowance of food and clothing yearly. Some children and people who didn't work didn't get their allowance of food and clothing. It also talked about when they didn't get up to the horn then they would get whipped by Mr. Severe. It seems sad that they had to live like this daily. It was also sad when they would sing songs for their sorrow and for their heart would be relieved with tears. This chapter was very sad because how they had to live.
After reading chapter three I thought that this was sad and interesting and weird. It was sad because some slaves got killed. This was also interesting and weird because Colonel Lloyd, the slave master, was so protective over his horses and stables at the Great house farm. This was a big and better plantation for the slaves. They worked here still but many were happier to be here then any other plantation. Colonel Lloyd cared for his horses so much that even if he thought they had to much of something or if a slight thing was wrong that he would whip the people taking charge of his horses. To me this was a poor way and a sad way to treat the slaves. This chapter was also about how the slaves could never talk bad about their masters and he said that " a still tongue makes a wise head" which means that if you watch what you say then you won' get in trouble for it.
After reading chapter four I thought that this was rude. Mr. Gore was the new overseer or master and he was mean and the cruelest to the slaves. He never was happy or he never even joked. He killed a slave to teach the others a lesson of what not to do.
Destiny, I think this is really good. You had good information and you did good at putting your own opinion in it. Well done(: AFter reading yours it kinda mad me sad and i didnt even readt it yet. I dont even like slaves because i think its wrong and this pretty much just agrees with why i am against them.
