Jennings, as I said, was Madison's slave, but Daniel Webster bought Jennings from Madison so he could be free. (Yes, the same Daniel Webster of Webster's dictionary). Nonetheless, despite being legally free, Jennings stayed close with Madison and Dolley until they both died.


Except that wasn't the dictionary fellow. That was Noah Webster...
