# Autobiography of a Female Slave Author: Browne, Martha Griffith, 1828-1906 Genre: Category: Biographies Language: English License: Public domain Source: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/55813 Amazon editions: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Autobiography+of+a+Female+Slave+Browne&tag=cyberlibrar00-20 ## Summary I was born in one of the southern counties of Kentucky. My earliest recollections are of a large, old-fashioned farm-house, built of hewn rock, in which my old master, Mr. Nelson, and his family, consisting of a widowed sister, two daughters and two sons, resided. I have but an indistinct remembrance of my old master. At times, a shadow of an idea, like the reflection of a kind dream, comes over my mind, and, then, I conjure him up as a large, venerable-looking man, with scanty, gray locks floating carelessly over an amplitude of forehead; a wide, hard-featured face, with yet a kindly glow of honest sentiment; broad, strong teeth, much discolored by the continued use of tobacco. ## Chapters -
