Item Details

Description

Partly printed document completed in manuscript. Savannah, [Georgia], 6 December 1863. 1 page. Signed by C. Henry Clarke.

A wartime slave sale document demonstrating how the slave trade continued even in the midst of war. The receipt notes that John Henry Farmer received $3,000 for the sale of a "negro slave named Prince Johnson aged about eighteen years." The decoratively printed official receipt suggests that Farmer purchased Prince Johnson from an established slave trader. It would be one year later when General Sherman would capture Savannah, effectively ending the slave trade in Georgia.
