I see no possible way in which you can escape with us; and now, brother, you are on a steamboat where there is some chance for you to escape to a land of liberty. I beseech you not to let us hinder you. If we cannot get our liberty, we do not wish to be the means of keeping you from a land of freedom.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
