There were negroes of all con litiuns of bodily mutilation. We saw one alHicled with a tumor nearly a foot in diameter: one with a ghastly scar across his jaw, n,ad
by an axe in the hands of an enemy one whose leg was almost fleshless from a\scalding received when stupefied with rum: many one-eyed, sumo deaf, some entirely blind.
