SLAVE STORY

By:Elizabeth DenBleyker

 

                  My name is Hanna I was born in a town with slaves and the rule was that when you turn 3 or 4 you become a slave you can choose what to do the master his name is Charlie ScootLenberg he is not a cool guy him and his wife have 3 kids and they are slaves and they have NO love shown to them from there parents!!

I had to have my parents got traded for a man named Siman and he works hard I miss my mom & dad!!:(

                    One night I was sick of pain on my back I can prove that I was a slave at one night I creeped out of bed and ran in to the woods and I found a tree and it had a big hole in it so in the day I stayed there and the hole was pointing  North so I knew what way to go at night.

When I got to the Ohio River there was a boat so I hopped in it.

When I got to the other side I saw this barn and i was brave  and Went in side I heard foot  steps and then hide in a big pile of hay!

When I got to Canada  I jumped Up and down I was so happy then a family and they welcomed me to there family and after a few days I  Figured out that these where my parents they escaped from slavery I trew my arms around them and I love them more then Mr.ScootLenberg.

when the Civil war started I was so scared because My grand parents fought in it.

when Abraham Lincoln became president I was so happy because its just  something different

HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!
