"I always said, 'I'm going to hold steady on to God, and he'll see me through.'"

"Every time I saw a white man, I was afraid of being carried away."

"I always told him, 'I trust to you. I don't know where to go or what to do, but I expect you to lead me,' and He always did."

"I had great faith in God, and I told him I wouldn't stop till I got to Canada."

"I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person now that I was free. There was such a glory over everything."
