Correspondence A Latham to A Duncombe
Description:
Correspondence from Alfred Latham to A Duncombe (formerley Alexander Moffat) of Antigua including copy letter from his brother Henry Latham re claim made on negroes of Sion Hill (in Antigua) by creditors and mortgagees.
The language used to describe people of African descent in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries is unacceptable in today’s terms. We cannot avoid using this language in its original context. To change the words would impose 20th century attitudes on history.
Date: July 15 1838
