Her husband George Harris, a slave in a nearby plantation, also waited for an opportunity to escape, joined his wife, took the children with him, and finally, with the help of the abolitionist organization, successfully arrived in Canada.

dying, George Shelby, the son of his former owner and the slave owner who sold him for the first time, came to redeem
