THE SLAVER.
A TALE OF OUR OWN TIMES.
BY A SON OF THE LATE DR. JOHN D. GODMAN.
CHAPTER I.
Come sit thee down, my bonnie, bonnie lass,
Come sit thee down by me, love,
And I will tell thee many a tale
Of the dangers of the sea, love.
Song.
Many modern authors, of eminent ability, have employed their time and
talents in writing tales of the vast deep; and of those “who go down to
the great sea in ships;” but they nearly always take for the hero of
their story some horrible and bloody pirate, or daring and desperate
smuggler, of the sixteenth or seventeenth century; characters that the
increased number, strength and vigilance of armed cruisers, and the
energy of the excise officers, have long since driven from the face of
the ocean, in these capacities: and who now can only be found in that
lawless traffic, the Slave Trade.
