    In 1838, the Maryland Jesuits sold 64 people to Jesse Batey. When Batey died thirteen years later, his estate was appraised. The appraisal listed the people he owned by name, including many of those who had been sold in 1838, such as Nace and Biby Butler.

    The latest issue of the Journal of Jesuit Studies focuses on the archaeology of Jesuit sites and includes several essays on slavery. An excellent sequel to the previous issue on the history of the Jesuits and slavery.
