Novel

Our class has been reading "Underground to Canada" by Barbara Smucker. So far in the novel we have learned that Juilily a 12 year old girl was a slave at a plantation in the state of Virginia. The plantation owner was very ill, so the slaves were going to be sold. On the way to southern united states, Juilily and other young children are put inside of a cart. There are three men. These men are walking with chains on their feet. The chains are attached to the back of the cart. The men are tied up with chains so they can not run away. The chains rub on their bare legs,they start to bleed.
