Chapter 2,3,4 Response on Narrative of the Life of Fredrick Douglas

I thought the chapters were appalling still. It went into detail about allowance and what he did on the field and went more into detail of being a slave. I talked about yearly allowance, what clothes slaves got, and what season the clothes were for. Douglas also talked about the plantation owner, Colonel Lloyd. He also talked about how the plantation was like and how slaves were honored to go work on the The Great House Farm. The only bright part of these chapters was the new overseer, Mr. Hopkins who was a kind overseer. He took no joy from whipping people and all slaves called him a good overseer. Then, it all turned upside down because Mr. Hopkins was replaced by Mr. Gore, his name suited him perfectly since he blew the brains of a slave that was just trying to recover from his whipping. It also had another person who was killed because a slave was on his property. The slave was fishing for oysters when he walked onto another plantations property, and the owner killed him. Overall, these chapters were really appalling.
