Custis Washington is a young black slave living on a cotton plantation in the
Province of Virginia. He was born in 1802. Left an orphan at the age of five he
is taken into the big house by his master, Alfred Gordon, to be trained as a
house servant. While in this house he suffers severe emotional and sexual abuse.
