Disgusted. Why? William was a QUAKER! Quakers don't believe in war. They don't believe in slavers. They are peaceful, calm people. They respect God. What did they do when the French came over? They prayed and prayed to God asking for the French to leave on their own. But then Robert stepped in and made a war(which made the Quakers very upset). William was a good, honest man.

Yes, he did, although, he treated them like members of the family. He did buy and trade slaves within the Quaker community and all Quakers treated slaves like family. Quakers fought against slave ownership by people who were cruel to their slaves both in the North and South. During the Civil War Quakers hid slaves who escaped.
