Kidnapped : memoirs of the adventures of David Balfour in the year 1751, written by himself and now set forth / by Robert Louis Stevenson. 1935 [Leather Bound] Quotes

“The ship was bound for the Carolinas; and you must not suppose that I was going to that place merely as an exile. The trade was even then much depressed; since that, and with the rebellion of the colonies and the formation of the United States, it has, of course, come to an end; but in those days of my youth, white men were still sold into slavery on the plantations, and that was the destiny to which my wicked uncle had condemned me.”
