Part of Papers of Thomas Clarkson
On British and Foreign Anti Slavery Society headed paper. Notes that a paper is being read by Mr. Stacey and Mr. Scoble. Has read the letter from Mr. Marsh to Judge O'Neal. Marsh contends that Nimrod was the first slaveholder, the Patriarchs then continued the practice and thus it was handed to the Jews. Servitude had previously existed but not slavery.
