Abstract:
Omar ibn Said, called Moreau in this article, was an Arabian prince who was captured by a hostile tribe and cast into slavery. Sold to a slave trader in Africa, he was shipped to Charleston, SC, where he was purchased by a man who treated him cruelly. The Price escaped and made his way to Fayetteville, NC, where he was captured. Through the local sheriff's contact, Governor John Owen of North Carolina became interested in him and bought him from his former owner. Though the Governor offered him his freedom, the Prince chose to remain in his household the rest of his life, rather than return home.
