Funny...

But my point still remains. It was not all whipping and beating. And many DID stay afterwards.

But not as slaves.

And Fogel & Engerman showed the AVERAGE was nearly two whipping per slave per year. You ready to sign up?

Dunmore’s Proclamation of 1775 offered freedom to any slave who fought for the Royal government.

The Philipsburg Proclamation of 1779 went even farther, offering freedom to any and all slaves.

Had the Royal government defeated the rebels and traitors of 1776 then slavery in America would have ended some 80 years sooner.
