sold in 1863-1864 by a group that included Union Maj. George Hanks and representatives of the American Missionary Association and the National Freedman's Relief Association to help raise money to pay for schools for emancipated slaves in New Orleans.
"They need to raise money for these schools, and someone somewhere along the way decided to take a group of freed people to the North to raise money for the cause," where they were also photographed for the cartes, according to Mitchell. (Mary Niall Mitchell, associate professor of history at the University of New Orleans. Mitchell had researched the group for her book, "Raising Freedom's Child: Black Children and Visions of the Future After Slavery")
"They realized that the sympathies that people would have for children who looked white but had been slaves was going to be greater than the sympathy they might have for black-skinned children," she says.

I hope this book is as inspirational for you as it has been for me. You are travelling an arduous road and I'm impressed by how courageous you are to pursue it. Your friendship has been something very important to and enlightening to me. You have helped me when you didn't even know it. And you've been a great listener. Bsudes, we've had lots of fun. Just remember that your choices open a world of opportunities. All my love and good luck in every place you go to. Rilke says all of this better than I could. So read (???) and think of me (??) in NYC.

Jumbo
Jumbo is my baby,
Great big elephant calf,
He fat, slow, and lazy,
But sure to make you laugh.
His tail is like his nose,
I pull them both quite hard.
His feet those my (??) toes
Can never hurt his (??)ard
I'm afraid my Jumbo sick,
And must have doctor stuff.
Now Jumbo don't you kick
For doctor is not rough.
