Dear President Lincoln,
I believe that slaves can help us a lot in with our fields. If we have slaves, they can work our fields and make crops. While they are making our crops for us, they can also do other things for us. For example, house hold chores and other things.They can sell our crops too will help make us money. They are also cheap and they listen to whatever you tell them to do. You can also punish them for whatever you want and they will not do nothing. Sincerly, Slave Master.

Dear President Lincoln,
We need slavery down here in the south, because its a cheap way of labor and its builds our economy. Without it our crops will take longer to harvest which could slow down production rate. There are so many more reasons why slavery is important you need to consider keeping slaves around. Sincerly, Slave Master

Dear Mr Lincoln,
You may not know this but we NEED slaves. They are esential in todays economy. They do the work that us slave owners cant. What would you do if a old cripple plantation owner has to work in the field but cant? Thats why we have slaves. So they can help the old.
Please just consider it.

Mr. President I think we should keep slavery because just think about it this people aren't us they can do everything we say and I know you don't want to be the one picking your own fields when you can have slave do it for you think about it they don't need freedom no they need more working hours and less freedom just think about it before doing the wrong thing.

Dear President Lincoln,
I believe that owning slaves should be legal because they play an important role in most of the . We also need help in the fields with picking, and other things. Slaves can do anything you tell them, that's why we need to keep slaves legalized. Please consider this in the decision you make.
Yours Truly , Slave Master.

Mr. lincoln i really want slavery to continue being legal. It's a graet experince to have someone do all your work. You dont have to lift a finger. Owning a slave is a great experince because they help good around the house. They can do the jobs you dont feel lik doing.

Dear,Mr. President Lincoln
I do not think that we need slaves and i don't think anyone should have slaves. i don't like people that think they have some kinds of rights over us the people trying to infiltrate slaves aren't in anyway human how can someone stand there and watch somebody get beaten or killed.i couldn't and wouldn't be a slave master because im not heartless.

Dear, President Lincoln, I do not think we need slaves anymore. I think we should let slavery go because it's not right to take advantage of others, and also I think beating others is wrong.

Dear Mr. President Lincoln
My name is Gerald Evans and I am an African American. Two me as a black male I feel that slaves should be set free.You shouldn't judge anyone on the the color of their skin tone, or even on how different he or she may look. Evaryone should be judge the same.Evaryone is human in the end of it all. So Mr President Lincoln please free the slaves.

Dear President Lincoln,
To be honest I do not think we should have slaves because I couldn't stand my self treating all those people bad. Futhermore it would be great to have someone wait on you hand and foot.

Dear President Lincoln,
my name is Diamonte Paynes and i am a slave owner of these white folks.I feel that having slaves is not right,because i wouldn't want to be a slave.My ancestors know's how it feels to be a slave,and it's not a good feeling,therefore i retire from being a slave owner.

Dear PL, I dont need my slaves so they can go.

Jimmy said

Dear President Lincoln,
I suggest that we should keep the slaves because they are valuable workers and don't have any knowledge of the world outside the fields.They are only good for working especially under my supervision.

Dear Preaisent Lincoln,
My name is Diamond Coleman and, i thonk that you should keep slaves legal.
Instead of banning slaves pass a law that we couldn't beat slaves.
I wont be able to take care of my farm on my own.
Futhor more, you should keep slaves leagal but limit a certain amont to each slave owner.

Dear Preaisent Lincoln,
As a slaves master i say you should take away the law of slaves owns .if you put your self in their postion i think you would understand why i tell you to do this. if you still dont think we should take away the law than at less give them the right to say what they think.
