of the moat serious questions that confronted the farmers of Indiana's constitution was whether the state should he addicted to slavery or not Before the constitution was adopted at Corydon a number of slaves had been SLAVERY IN THE SOUTH After Forty Years of Bondage a Mississippi Man Has just Regained His Freedom Sometimes we hear of slavery still existing in some out-of-the-way place in the
