Confidence

Confidence. This means a lot to me and Julilly. We escaped from the Riley plantation with Adam and Lester. We got to Kentucky and this kind little man came to help us in the place of Mr.Ross. He brought us to a barn, where we got food, sleep, shelter, its was all great. But then Lester and Adam went to get fish for the rest of our journey. They didnt come back. The got taken by the slave owners. Now all thats left is the confidence that Julilly and i have in eachother. The confidence to make sure everything that will be okay.

  1. I AGREE! Hello Liza, you may remember me, I was an abolitionist who helped you escape to Canada. I would like to congratulate your freedom in Canada. You have earned it with your confidence. Without this special gift from God, Julilly and you would not have made it to Canada. Best wishes in Canada, enjoy your freedom! You deserve it!
