Virginia plantations in the earlier colonial days was the question as to how to obtain sufficient labor to tin the soil and to raise tobacco for the English market. Some of the colonial planters of Virginia owned thousands of acres of the richest tobacco land in the world whole tracts of virgin earth where the priceless loam lay open to the rain, the air, and the warm sky; bountifully fruitful loam, only waiting for tillage to be coined into vast tobacco fortmies for the princely owners. All that was needed was hmnan labor to dig the earth, to plant, to hoe, to cultivate, and to prepare the tobawjo for market, for there was not a hundredth part enough labor to turn the waiting soil, that lay ready to yield at any time its thousands of hogsheads of tobacco, and the question was, where and how labor was to be obtained. The easiest and quickest solution of the question appeared to be the importation of negro slave labor from A frica. The introduction of such slave labor began almost in the earliest days of the provinces.
