Wbicky wasj p'.entiful and cheap, and the prejudice( general then as now. lae focal point of interest, however, raa the hiring out of negroes for the en fning year. Now and then negroes were offered for public sale, but that practice waa not so common then as in the earlier part of the century. Planters neither hired out their slaves, nor did they employ those of other peo ple. But those belonging to minor chd oren and widows, as wtll as many who were "chattels" of residents of the towns and villages were comraanly "hired out,' especially if they had been taught trades, or were good cooks or boue servants Many town residents possessed slaves be yond their home needs, and these were "hired out" to others who might require their services. The contract lasted for the calendar year only. It must be renewed annually, if desired by the contracting parties. Much misconception obtains as to the disagreeableness and shame of this prac tice. Masters had a direct pecuniary in terest in their slaves, and it was to their interest to see to it that these secured humane employers. As far as it was pos sible, each slave was permitted to 'choose the person for whom he would work. Borne there were who remained with the same employers year by year for many years. Those that were good servants had no difficulty in choosing desirable employers. Very frequently the master left this mat ter entirely in the hands of the slave. After all, though, there were those who were unknown and many more who were practically worthless, and thesa were "hired out" at auction to the highest bid- Flans (or he Kerr Year.
