Excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Moses Grandy: Formerly a Slave in the United States of America

Another of my brothers was sold to Mr. Tyler, Dewan' s Neck, Pasquotank county. This man very much ill treated many colored boys. One very cold day, he sent my brother out, naked and hun gry, to find a yoke of steers; the boy returned Without finding them, when his master flogged him, and sent him out again. A white lady, who 'lived near, gave him food', and advised him to try again, he did so, but, it seems, again without success. He piled up a heap of leaves, and laid himself down in them, and died there He was found through a flock of turkey buzzards hovering over him; these birds had pulled his eyes out.
