Fleeing Female Slave Impersonates Planter, Husband Posing As Trusty Servant: ...Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

“Ellen was fair enough to pass for white,” but how to transform her into a young planter? She needed to “dress elegantly in a fashionable suit of male attire, and have her hair cut in the style usually worn by young planters.” But she was beardless. So, they muffled up the face of the young planter as if he were “suffering badly with a toothache.”
But how could they register for a room at hotels? Their planter had to be a “gentleman who was very much indisposed. He must have his right arm in a sling,” so he could not sign in. “He must be a little lame, with a nice cane in the left hand; he must have large green spectacles over his eyes, and he must be hard of hearing and depend on his faithful servant, as was common with slaveholders, to look after all his wants.”
“William was just the man to act this part. To begin with, he was very smart, active, and exceedingly attentive to his young master. Indeed, he was almost the eyes, ears, hands, and feet for him. William knew that this would please the slaveholders. The young planter would have nothing to do but hold himself subject to his ailments and put on a bold air of superiority; he was not to deign to notice anybody. If, while traveling, gentlemen, either politely or rudely, should venture to scrape acquaintance with the young planter, in his deafness he was to remain mute; the servant was to explain.”
Other slave narratives included the lives of Frederick Douglass, Booker T Washington, and Father Augustine Tolton.

The Road to Revolution
The colonists came to America for independence and a new form of society free from English control. Growing tensions emerged between the colonies and England due to new taxes imposed through acts like the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and Townshend Acts without colonial representation. This led colonists to claim "no taxation without representation" and sparked protests like the Boston Tea Party. In response to the Intolerable Acts, the colonies prepared for potential conflict by drafting declarations of rights and military defenses, culminating in the first battles of the American Revolutionary War at Lexington and Concord in 1775.
Wampanoag pwrpt
