Excerpt from Behind the Scenes Although born and reared a slave in Virginia in the family of a Presbyterian Minister, and having become imbued with those traits and that taste that characterized the young slave girl who, through contact with members of the family in the Great House, was able through force of character and Christian precepts to surmount some of the obstacles to the extent that generations yet unborn may call her blessed, and be inspired with greater love of humanity.
