	The Islands
		Optimists, among the planters of Jamaica, expected that a slave like Samuel Sharpe would be a good Christian, a deacon in a mission headed by a white minister, and just the kind of lay preacher who might be trusted to use his time preaching among the slaves of the island.

		Against this, Sharpe planned that the slaves should simply stop work, present their demand for freedom, and then hold fast in resistance until the demand was met.
