The Mill House in Color
A view to the old mill at Middleton Plantation. Arthur Middleton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, lived here. His home is no longer, as the British made sure to burn it down when they took Charleston in 1781. He was also a slave owner. 107 human beings. Makes one ponder how a place of such beauty and peace can also be a place of pain and hardship, that lays just under the surface. How does one declare his freedom to his oppressors, while oppressing others at the same time?
