Dear President Harrison,
I do not beleive in slavery, it is unjust. Humans are humans, we are all the same and that is how I view it. Well, I am a slave, and I know what your thinking, obviously a slave is against slavery, but it is not like that. I am aware that you are a sensable man and you have the interest of the people in mind. Slavery cannot move out west, it is not needed and not fair. I am treated horribly, I get worn out by my owner and it is horrible. All I am asking is that slavery not be expanded to the west, out of the interest for slaves and you.
Sincerely,
Josiah
