“I want to know particularly what the good chance is you propose to give me. I am doing tolerably well here; I get $25 a month, with victuals and clothing; have a comfortable home for Mandy (the folks here call her Mrs. Anderson), and the children; milly, Jane, and Grandy, go to school and are learning well…we are kindly treated…if you will write and say what wages you will give me, I will be better able to decide whether it would be to my advantage to move back again.’’ 

As Jourdon Anderson wrote in the letter, tells his master the salary he got, the environment they live. And he reply his master for  going back to work  by first ask what benefit he will get. Like salary, a place to live, an education for their children and also the money Jourdon and his wife should deserve for past working. This could clearly show now the black were not a property any more. They could express their thought and have equal right to ask for salary, to have own thought and right to decide what they want or don’t want to do. And this changes society’s economic and political. Black children could have same opportunity to educate. Whites need to pay the money for black to work, and learn to respect black.
