Hmmmm, if it's referring to something they owned, besides slaves, how about:
whips, branding iron, crop (what was used to whip horses to make them go faster or slaves too for that matter, bed warmers, etc!.

If it's referring to they want you to write am article about a slave owner, you can tell how word came up of a new shipment of Africans and that there was to be an auction of the "livestock'!. Going to the auction how owner purchased 3 able-bodied slaves, 1 male-about 24, 1 female-about 14 (looks to be a good breeder), and what must have been her little brother because of the noise and carrying on when they were separated!. You took him too because he would work fine in the garden your wife had planted and as a companion to your son!. Since these were new slaves, the first thing you had to do was mark them, you hated to mar their flesh because of what fine specimens they appeared to be, but you didn't like knocking out their teeth as that proved to create more problems down the road when infections set in!.

How's that sound!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
