But they say a man who is known to Illtreat his negroes is hated by all the rest of the community.
"Three Months in the Southern States, April-June 1863"
Arthur J. L. (Lieut.-Col.) Fremantle
For if you wished to Illtreat an animal, it would be quite easy, even more easy, to suppose that an enemy or a murderer inhabited the body of the animal, and that you were but carrying out the decrees of fate by ill-using it.
"The Soul of a People"
H. Fielding
I don't wonder at his running away if they really did Illtreat him.
