<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Frank, post: 11735949, member: 5421&quot;]One of the things I inherited is a bill of sale for a slave named Fielding.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would never sell it, nor would I destroy it (as has been suggested to me in the past). I believe that destroying it would erase the memory of this otherwise anonymous man. I feel I have a moral duty to remember his name and his humanity. </p><p><br /></p><p>My wife and I don&#039;t have children, and my nephews have made it clear that they don&#039;t have any interest in the family history, so I need to make a decision about who to donate this and many other bits and pieces in my care.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
