Source C: Excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave, 1845
"[My master) would at times seem to take great pleasure in whipping a slave. I have often been awakened at the dawn of day by the most heart-rending
shrieks of an own aunt of mine, whom he used to tie up to a joist, and whip upon her naked back till she was literally covered with blood. No words, no
tears, no prayers, from his gory victim, seemed to move his iron heart from its bloody purpose. It was the first of a long series of such outrages, of which
I was doomed to be a witness and a participant. It struck me with awful force. It was the blood-stained gate, the entrance to the hell of slavery, through
which I was about to pass. It was a most terrible spectacle. I wish I could commit to paper the feelings with which / beheld (saw) it."
