Sobre este artículo
Bristol, RI, 1814. Pre-printed form, 3" x 7-1/2", completed and signed in manuscript. The words "Dwelling Houses, and Slaves" have been crossed out. Light toning, small chip to top blank corner. Very Good.
The Gladdings of Bristol were a large, extended family. Several Gladdings with this name existed around Bristol at this time. Lemuel Clarke, whose land was adjacent to Gladding, was a vestryman of the local Episcopal Church.
The printed form solicits information on "slaves," who-- although Gladding apparently was not a slave owner-- were in bondage in Rhode Island until the total abolition of slavery there in 1842. Before that date, the gradual emancipation law freed children born to slave mothers after 1784. Rhode Island's economy was heavily dependent upon the West Indian trade. Rum was its biggest export.
