  • All would be freed by the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 (she chose to free them at that time even though the proclamation did not apply to her state of Missouri). Grant personally owned one slave, William Jones, given to him in 1857 by his father-in-law and manumitted by Grant on March 29, 1859.

They knew nothing of the secrets of nature. They lived in groups of two or three, as accident had brought them together, in caves or rock crevices. They walked on all fours until the Gods arrived: They brought the light."
