A London auction house has removed a 19th-century bill of sale for two human beings from its website, saying the practice of selling slavery-era artifacts for profit is immoral. "We don't feel right selling a slave document. We don't want to profit, make our commission, selling something related to this," said James Gardner, the director of online auctions at London's Gardner Galleries. We don't feel right selling it, that's the bottom line." 'It was a shocker to see something like this turn up in London, Ont.'
