Why do you collect?: I prefer signed documents and letters that have stories behind them. I enjoy researching the stories and putting them into historical context. I learn history "inside out."

Mason was charged with harboring a slave when authorities came to get his son to deliver to the master. The boy ran away, and Emmanuel could not produce him.
