"Nevertheless, from 1804 until 1813 he successfully combined
with planting and the stock-raising business enterprises of a larger
sort, especially slave and horse dealing."
We are not talking about a plantation owner who owned slaves like Washington or Jefferson here, we are talking about a guy who made his living as a Slave Trader.
Eventually Jackson did own a plantation with 140 slaves, but, from 1804 to 1813 he made his living as a slave trader.
