What is the tone of this passage?

I shall never forget the ecstasy with which I received the intelligence that my old master (Anthony) had
determined to let me go to Baltimore, to live with Mr. Hugh Auld, brother to my old master's son-in-law,
Captain Thomas Auld. I received this information about three days before my departure. They were three of
the happiest days I ever enjoyed. I spent the most part of all these three days in the creek, washing off the
plantation scurf, and preparing myself for my departure.
