Illustration accompanies the narrative, "Aunt Judy's Story: A Story from Real Life," by Matilda G. Thompson. According to the story, Aunt Judy's husband, John, was a Kentucky slave with a brutal master. Desperate to leave, and eager to regain contact with Judy, who lived on a different plantation, John managed to escape. He made it to the plantation of Judy's mistress, and hid there for more than a week before he was betrayed and captured by slave-hunters., Illustration in The child's anti-slavery book (Boston: American Tract Society, 28 Cornhill, Boston, 1859), p 104., Fels Afro-Americana Image Project, Resistance.
