This article appeared under "Voices from fifty years ago" in the 30 November 1912 edition of The Mountain Democrat newspaper. It describes how Phillip Hufft helped a local slave achieve his freedom. At the time of the incident,1850, California was not a state and southerners had brought slaves to the mine fields to work claims. The slave in question was not purchased by Phillip Hufft, but rather he loaned the slave the funds to purchase his freedom from his owner and repay Phillip by working for him for $4.00 per day until the debt was paid.
