AUTHOR'S NOTE. Captain Mayne Reid is pleased to have had the help of an American Author in preparing for publication this story of "The Boy Slaves," and takes the present opportunity of acknowledging that help, which has kindly extended beyond matters of merely external form, to points of narrative and composition, which are here embodied with the result of his own labor.
Set during the Depression, a young boy named Jesse (Roger Daniel) runs away from home so that he can try and earn money for his struggling mother. He winds up with a gang of boys led by Tim (James McCallion) who are quick to beat him up, take what money he does have and force him to join their crooked ways.
One man raised on a Texas plantation said that all enslaved children wore “the straight-cut slip. They give the lil gals the slip dress and lil panties. In wintertime they give the boys the lil coat and pants and shoes, but no drawers or underwear.”.
