A
A plantation well stocked with workers is the ambition of every man who lives in the South. Young men who come to this country ”to make money” . . . want this . . . This is the reason for the great number of planters and few professionals if they are at all successful. As soon as the young lawyer make enough to purchase a few hundred acres of rich soil and a few slaves, he quits his profession at once . . . and turns cotton planter. The legal profession in Natchez [MS] is composed entirely of young men.
Physicians make money much more rapidly than lawyers so they turn planter even sooner . . . They far outnumber the regular doctors who have not yet climbed high enough to leap down into a cotton field on the other side.
- Joseph Ingraham, “The South-West”, 1835Slide9

A crust of bread and a corner to sleep in,
A minute to smile and an hour to weep in,
A pint of joy and a peck of trouble,
And never a laugh, but the moans come double
And that is life!
