• Comment: There's other hooks available in the article; the location of the slave market is a bit underdeveloped as yet. That it's on an artesian well used long before whites came to town is an optino too.

• @Drmies: Pinging. epic genius (talk) 16:09, 16 November 2015 (UTC) (Note: The |hookother= parameter was "The end of the hook, "but those had corroded twenty years later already," is a little confusing. I suggest ALT1." epic genius (talk) 16:17, 16 November 2015 (UTC))
