unable to ascertain. But if, as was alleged, forty thousand copies of the
Baltimore pamphlet were issued, it seems impossible that they should have
become so scarce. The first reprint of the Confession, so far as I know,
was a partial one in Abdy's "Journal in the United States." London. 1835.
3 vols. 8vo.]

2. "Authentic and Impartial Narrative of the Tragical Scene which was
witnessed in Southhampton County (Va.), on Monday, the 22d of August
last, when Fifty-five of its inhabitants (mostly women and children) were
inhumanly massacred by the blacks! Communicated by those who were
eye-witnesses of the bloody scene, and confirmed by the confessions of
several of the Blacks, while under Sentence of Death." [By Samuel Warner,
New York.] Printed for Warner & West. 1831. 12mo, pp. 36 [or more, copy
incomplete. With a frontispiece]. Among the Wendell Phillips tracts in
the Boston Public Library.

3. "Slave Insurrection in 1831, in Southampton County, Va., headed by Nat
Turner. Also a conspiracy of slaves in Charleston, S.C., in 1822." New
York: compiled and published by Henry Bibb, 9 Spruce St. 1849. 12mo, pp.
12.

[The contemporary newspaper narratives may be found largely quoted in the
first volume of the _Liberator_ (1831), and in Lundy's _Genius of
Universal Emancipation_ (September, 1831). The files of the Richmond
_Enquirer_ have also much information on the subject.]
