An original poem by Treasure Shields Redmond
Here is a most beautiful poem penned by Ms. Treasure Redmond Shields about Dred Scott as seen through the eye of his wife Harriet. I am greatly appreciative of the sincerity and gentleness with which she describes who the composite man was. Bravo, Treasure.
And Thank You!
