You gotta hand it to Henry , he was brave and he was determined to get his and his family's freedom. It had to be tough for an intelligent, logical man to live the life of a slave. I used to live in Madison Indiana , the town in which he waited before he boarded the steamboat to Cincinnati, where I currently work The area I live in is well known among historians as a destination for escaped slaves either on their own or with help from people involved in the Underground Railroad. Also, 'adventures' is definitely an apt title for this story.
My family is related to a Gatewood family from Kentucky....they migrated to Indiana and im sure they were slaves of the Gatewood family...I hope shame and misfortune follows the Gatewood families all the days of their wretched lives may their childrens children suffer from the horrible sins of their fathers!!😡

Wow! He was a powerful writer! It's hard to believe he was uneducated. I guess he was self-educated.
Like Fredrick Douglass and Ben Franklin, an autodidact.
