- W3146217844 abstract "It all seemed as if it were a dream, the arrival of the sheriff, the gathering of friends and neighbors, the high pitched voice of the auctioneer, the shouts and greedy excitement of the bidders. But for Josephine Decuir it was not a dream, but a harsh reality. Only a decade before she and her husband, Antoine Decuir, Jr., had been among the wealthiest free people of color in the South. They had owned more than a thousand acres of fertile land along a river in Pointe Coupee Parish, raised sugarcane, corn, and rice, and produced wool and molasses. Their total estate, including real property, machinery, livestock, and 112 slaves, had been worth in excess of $150,000.1 After Antoine had died during the last year of the Civil War, Josephine had taken over as mistress of this once great plantation. But now, at dusk on the second day of spring in 1871, she listened as the final bids were recorded for her plantation house, stables, cabins, machinery, sugarhouse, and the remaining 840 acres of her plantation. In a single day the accumulations of a lifetime had disappeared before the auctioneer's gavel. When the final tally was made, she received only $25,752 for her land and other holdings, an amount which failed even to cover the estate's outstanding debts.2" @default.
