>>Since I am new to this list (I have been a subscriber for only two weeks)
I attempted to respond in the ways that I saw on this list. Topicality and
relevance.....The slave owner when about to be whipped calls out the names
of his children, Tiffany and Jason. I offered this observation (and stated)
only in passing and for what it is worth. I find Tiffany and Jason
improbable 17th Century names.

> OOOPS worldwide...you probably did not mean Mohammed ..rather
something more Asian/Chinese
