Underground to Canada


In the 1840's to 1860's slavery was legal in the southern United States. The slaves masters were very cruel to the slaves. The slaves were beaten if they did not work. If the slaves tried to run away and the got caught, the master or the over watcher would beat them. Some of the slaves got their feet cut off, others got their ankles broken with a sleg hammer. The slaves did not have a very good life.
