1 We were sent off to the jail at Easton.
2 Upon the whole, we got along very well, so far as the jail and its keeper were concerned.
3 When we got there, we were delivered up to the sheriff, Mr. Joseph Graham, and by him placed in jail.
4 While in jail, we found ourselves in much more comfortable quarters than we expected when we went there.
5 We were to be dragged that morning fifteen miles behind horses, and then to be placed in the Easton jail.
6 We had been in jail scarcely twenty minutes, when a swarm of slave traders, and agents for slave traders, flocked into jail to look at us, and to ascertain if we were for sale.
7 We were all now tied; and just as we were to leave for Easton jail, Betsy Freeland, mother of William Freeland, came to the door with her hands full of biscuits, and divided them between Henry and John.
8 Immediately after the holidays were over, contrary to all our expectations, Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Freeland came up to Easton, and took Charles, the two Henrys, and John, out of jail, and carried them home, leaving me alone.
