One of the best objective reports on the region in the antebellum period: Olmstead was not at first an advocate of freeing the slaves but upon the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation he became one of its most fervant supporters. His biograper Broadus Mitchell wrote: "Olmstead did what he could to save the pot from boiling over. For passion he sought to substitute thoughtfulness for raving rationality and for invective a calm examination of facts and their historical antecedents that should induce tolerance."

1876List2319Lancaster 1876. Single page measuring 9 ½ x 6 inches. Some tears at folds near fine. Near Fine. An interesting letter deserving further study regarding the legal fallout for defaults on Negro Bonds following Emancipation a question of significant economic impact for the finances of ex-enslavers as a significant amount of private debt endured following Emancipation. The author a collections agent warns B.H. Massey Esquire of pending actions to pursue damages for defaults on Negro Bonds for the sum of $10000 based on the fact that Massey acted as Receiver of the bonds when they were issued. It is unclear whether Massey was Allison’s client at the time or if he intended to pursue collections actions against him. We find no record of the case. Full transcription follows:<br /> <br /> <br /> Kershaw Allison & Connors<br /> Correspondent<br /> American Attorneys<br /> Collection Association<br /> All Legal Business Attended To.<br /> Collections a specialty. <br /> <br /> Lancaster S.C. Sept. the 14th 1876<br /> <br /> B. H. Massey Esq.<br /> <br /> Dear Sir <br /> <br /> My impression is that Blackwell Wilson is going to try to charge you with the three notes which you signed as though you had collected the money thereon - taking the ground that the moment you were appointed Receiver that in contemplation of law by the act of such appointment these notes by operation of Law were eo instanti paid. And I confess that there is great danger to you in this unless you can show that there was failure of consideration in the Negro bonds - that is that the Negroes were unsound. I deem it my duty to apprise you of the danger so that you may be prepared for it if it should come. I do not know how you have your affairs arranged. If you can show failure of consideration of the Negro bonds we can either take testimony to that effect or have an issue referred to a jury. Let me know what defense you could make to any of the bonds. <br /> <br /> Yours truly &c.<br /> R. E. Allison.<br /> <br /> I think the notes that he desires to charge you with Prin. & Interest will amount to exceeding ten thousand Dollars. <br /> <br /> An interesting document relating to Reconstruction-era law that should provide insight into some of the legal strategies at play regarding the collections of debt. unknown
