My name is jack I work helping my master farm on his land.I haded it there.i lived in ohio. I did not like milking the cows and goats. The hardest thing in my life was leaving my mom at the age of ten.
my escape from south was kind of bad from the people I met. why I decided to flee is I was torcherd from my master if I took a wrong step. I traveled by my scraped up feet. I secretly hid a compess when I left my parents. I ate whatever was edible for me. I felt good to go away from those stinky cows.
I met very nice people and the were the best paople I met in my life. I came across Dutch people in ohio. they helped me make my bed and make my food and they gave me shoos. They told me to keep goind and dont look back.
I just went on with my life and farmed again. I settled in a farm a dirty farm. It was just right for me and very cosy and warm. I helped other slaves to freedom. I faced my barn callaping on me. I felt good starting a brand new life of my own.
I was scared when the Civil war happend. It was a good feeling and it was fun to celebrate. my familly did not go in the Civil war. I was happy when he took over the place. I was the best day of my life!!!
