On Monday the 8th instant, a lusty likely Negro wench was delivered of a male child, who, in memory of a notable Negro chief, is named Dunmore. Hail! doughty Ethiopean chief! Thou ignominious Negro-thief! This black shall prop thy sinking name, And damn thee to perpetual fame. (Query, Is not this, tho' an act of justice to Dunmore, cruelty to the innocent Negro.) |
