Sensible view.

--Nancy Davis, a Lunenburg free negro, made her bow to the Mayor yesterday, to answer for being in the city with improper papers. When told that she must return to Lunenburg or go North, she declined to do either, declaring that she had rather be sold into slavery than take the chances of starving in freedom. She was ordered to leave the city forthwith.
