Degrading influence of slavery—Reply of
Degrading influence of slavery—Reply of Judge Critcher to Mr. Hoar.
In the debate on Education in the House of Representatives, Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, remarked that slavery in the South was not so observable in the degradation of the slave as in the depravity of the master.
Mr. Critcher, of Virginia, replied: Reminding the gentleman from Massachusetts that every signer of the Declaration of Independence, except those from his State, and perhaps one or two others, were slave-owners, Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, remarked that slavery in the South was not so observable in the degradation of the slave as in the depravity of the master.
Mr. Critcher, of Virginia, replied: Reminding the gentleman from Massachusetts that every signer of the Declaration of Independence, except those from his State, and perhaps one or two others, were slave-owners, he would venture to make a bold assertion; he would venture to say that he could name more eminent men from the parish of his residence, than the gentleman could name from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
He would proceed to name them, and yield the floor to the gentleman to match them if he could.
On one side of his estate is Wakefield, the birth-place of Washington.
On the other side is Stratford, the residence of Light Horse Harry Lee, of glorious Revolutionary memory.
