"ONLY THE DEAD SEE THE END OF WARS""–AFRICAN AMERICAN UPRISING DURING GEN. EDWARD BRADOCK'S DEFEAT IN 1755 WITH HIM IN CHARGE OF BUILDING FIRST U.S. MILITARY ROAD

As Spanish George Santayana  also wrote, "wrote, "Those who don't know their history reamin children all their lives. "At that time there was noticeable restlessness among the Negroes. Before the bad news was fully confirmed, Gen Robert Dinwiddie wrote to Colonel Charles Carter (whose daughter was the mother of Robert E. Lee), owner of a thou"sand slaves–"The Villany of the Negroes on any emergency  of Gov't is w't I always fear'd." A body of them advised the seizure of "all Horses used by Negroes ln the Night Time."  He wrote to England that he could not call out all the militia, but must leave a proper number in each county  "to protect it from the Combinations of the Negro slaves, who have been very audacious on the defeat of the Ohio (when Braddock accidentally killed his own soldiers and also was killed and buried in what became the National Road so Indians wouldn't dig his bones up."  These poor creatures imagine the French will give them their freedom. We have too many of them. [All Americans at that time feared the liberated people captured and held in bondage against their free will and human rights for good reason.  The inevitable came at last and the so-called "white" people are still paying the price of tortured humanity. The piper is always paid.
