By Henry Whiteley In 1832, Henry Whiteley, a young Methodist clergyman, travelled to Jamaica on a mission to preach the gospel to the Negro slaves and convert many to Christianity. Three Months in Jamaica is Whiteley’s account of that visit. The account was published in June 1833, and is one of the few remaining records of the working conditions and methods of punishment that existed on Jamaican sugar plantations during the period (1655-1838) when the British system of slavery existed throughout the island. An excerpt from Three Months in Jamaica: I proceeded on horseback to New Ground estate the next day. On my way thither I saw much majestic arid beautiful scenery, and enjoyed the prospect exceedingly, until I came in sight of a gang of negroes at work. Most of them were females; and they were superintended by a driver, with the cart-whip in his hand. Just as I rode past, the driver cracked his whip and cried out, “Work! Work!”

By Baptist Wriothesley Noel The Case of George William Gordon, Esq., of Jamaica by Baptist Wriothesley Noel examines the events that led to the execution by hanging after the Morant Bay Rebellion in 1865 of The Right Excellent George William Gordon, National Hero of Jamaica. Noel details Gordon the successful businessman, Christian and family man, as well as the flimsy and unfair charges brought against him by the colonial government for suspicion of having planned the rebellion. An excerpt from The Case of George William Gordon, Esq., of Jamaica: As a Christian and a man of strong affections it was impossible that he should not use his influence to protect the weak from suffering wrong. More than many rich men do, he resembled the patriarch, who could say of himself, “When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me: because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him. I was a father to the poor, and the cause that I knew not I searched out; and I break the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.”
