...he that was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied
============================================================
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass is describing the horrific conditions of what kind of food he ate and the conditions in which he had his meals. At the start of the paragraph, he describes the food itself (a corn meal called Mush). Then later on he describes how the food was served in a very degrading inhumane way (the food being served in a trough; effectively treating them as animals). Shortly after, he goes over how the food was eaten through a variety of means: use of oyster shells, shingles, or bare hands. None of which involves the regular utensils you'd expect such as a spoon.
At the very end of the excerpt, Frederick Douglass mentions that "He that ate the fastest got most; he was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied". This effectively means that even though the food itself was horrible, and the conditions degrading, people were still hungry and had no other choice. Also, even the people who were able to eat the most weren't truly/fully fed.
So in short, the last part of the excerpt describes that the slaves weren't fed enough. If we could narrow down the cited evidence as much as possible, the portion that mentions "few left the trough satisfied" is the thing you should focus on.

Number 12 Evander Way,

Dear Andrew, how are you doing? It's been a while we talked and I miss hearing your throaty laughter and your words of wisdom and I kind of need them right now.
The thing is, after secondary school, I'm confused on what next to do. I have two options right now: go to university, or learn a trade. Hear me out first, because at this point I'm fairly certain of what you'll say, but if you hear my points, maybe you would reconsider.
As the first child of the family, there are certain sacrifices I have to make for my other siblings of which education is one of them. You know how money is with us and sending me to the university at this point would be tantamount to s uicide. A trade seems the sensible way out because I have the chance to learn hands-on from a person that is already into the business and in a few years, I would establish my own trade.
I understand the importance of university education, but given the high rate of unemployment, I feel it's too big a gamble for me to undertake right now.
I could do with your advice, big fella.
Yours sincerely,
John Nyra.
