2362 - L Jan. 28; ed: 2/3 - Governor Bramlette of Kentucky refuses leave to
a recruiting officer to recruit free colored men in the state. "This will
please the slave owners; it is to their interest to have negroes refused.
But whether it will please the free white workingmen who must leave their
families while the blacks stay at home to work for their masters, remains
to be seen." - (7)
