<p> “Northerners know
nothing at all about Slavery. They think it is perpetual bondage only. They have no
conception of the depth of <hi rend="italics">degradation</hi> involved in
that word, SLAVERY; if they had, they would never cease their efforts until so horrible a
system was overthrown.” </p>
You met the billionaire playboy
once. You grew up in one of his orphanages, after your Pop was killed by a villain and
your Ma ran off to make her fortune robbing banks in a souped-up mech suit. The orphanage
was nice, nicer than home even, because nobody there was squirreling away your lunch money
to pay for mech suit parts. You met the billionaire playboy when he came through the
orphanage to inspect the place. There was a woman with a clipboard trailing behind him,
and she smiled at you. The billionaire ran his hands across the rows of bedposts and
looked into the distance, and you couldn’t catch his eye.

efforts at subscribing institutions, the Women Writers Project offers free metadata
records for all texts published as part of Women Writers Online (WWO). Every time new
texts are published in WWO, we will update this page with a metadata set consisting of
records created or changed after the last publication. At that time, we will also update
the set containing records for all published WWO texts.
