Excerpt from Jamaica, as It Was, as It Is and as It May Be: Comprising Interesting Topics for Absent Proprietors, Merchants, &C. And Valuable Hints to Persons Intending to Emigrate to the Island Also an Authentic Narrative of the Negro Insurrection in 1831; With a Faithful Detail of the Manners, Customs and Habits
After a lapse of rather more than two years, since the horrors of the Negro Insurrection in Jamaica were experienced, it will doubtless appear a matter of wonder, why an account of that ever memorable and truly deplorable event should not ere now have been produced. Ihe reasons, (as far as relates to the present writer) can be readily fur nished, and the causes satisfactorily eaplained. Although a sojourn of nearly' twenty years, with but a slight interruption, in the Island of Jamaica, since the year 1815, might be supposed to qualify for the undertaking any resident individual possessing the faculty of observation; yet, it must be remem bered, that obstacles frequently arise in the feelings, capacity, leisure and opportunity of some, who might be otherwise equal to the task.
