In this extended interview, conducted in 1883 on Sourland Mountain, New Jersey, Sylvia Dubois--then nearly one hundred years old--tells her life story to Dr. Cornelius Wilson Larison. Dr. Larison wrote the original version in his singular phonetic alphabet. Introduced by Jared C. Lobdell, this edited and annotated version of the original text offers a fascinating view of slave life and the life of the uneducated free black in the North during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
