So now an agent for a client is the same as owning slaves? Though I suspect your source of information and its certainty. There is no doubt that Hamilton was opposed to slavery.

So buying a slave and forcing him to clean my house is wrong, but renting somebody else's slave and forcing him to do the same thing is not? Buying a slave for ones self is wrong, but buying a slave for one of your relatives is not?

If Hamilton was truly anti-slavery, he had an odd way of showing it.
