She was approved for only a fraction of what she lists here. The point this makes (at least to me,) is the notion that Moses Dallas was "hired out" to the Confederate Navy to enrich his owner (which is repeated in a lot of circles) doesn't hold water. A slave's widow with almost $1,000.00 worth of personal property, six months after her husband's death ?
