Excerpt from The Narrative of Lunsford Lane: Formerly of Raleigh, N. C Some time afterwards. My infancy was spent upon the ¿oor, in a rough cradle, or sometimes in my mother's arms, my early boyhood, in playing with the other boys and girls, colored and white, in the yard, and occasionally doing such little matters of la bor as one of so young years could. I knew no difference between myself and the white children, nor did they seem to know any in turn. Sometimes my master would come out and give a biscuit to me, and another to one of his own white boys, but I did not perceive the difference between us. I had no brothers or sisters, but there were other colored families living in the same kitchen, and the children playing in the same yard, with me and my mother.
