Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This account describes the author's experience of being imprisoned in a Missouri jail in the 1840s for assisting enslaved people in their bid for freedom. The author became the victim of the pro-slavery violence prevalent at the time. Through journals and letters, the author shows how their deep Christian faith compelled them to fight against injustice, enduring public scorn and the threat of death to help enslaved people seeking refuge in a free state.
