If you seriously believe Voodoo to follow negro migration, I can see no objection to assuming it to be a universal cult."
She cared less for her friends, and went to church less often, a suspicious circumstance, for when a negro failed to go to mass, and kept away from confession, it was surely because he had something mischievous to confess. The rumor got about that Maumee Niña had become an Obeah woman, a voodoo worker, a witch. It is not unlikely that the accusation inspired her to live down to it.
While the mulatto guide was talking, or swearing Jack's half-amused questions, the cab left Annapolis further and further behind.
