From the Port Deposit Items Column of Cecil Whig

 July 29,/1876 “Return of an Old Colored Man” - Henry Allen, a colored man, brother of old aunt Polly Howard, and formerly a slave of old Mr. Gale, who left between two days, fifty-two years ago, came here on a visit to his sister.  When he left there was very few colored men free.  What a change.  None are now slaves.  He makes his home in Hayti, and intends visiting the places of his childish sports and see the very few remaining friends that are left, and then return to his adopted home.
