My Slave Journal Response

                                                                                                                      Jan. 1852                                     It is dark.  My family is cold and hungry. It is winter and we just went through a cold river.  Harriet urges us on. I say to my family that it is only a few more miles to pennsylvania.  Harriet said that I had good navinagatial skills. I say that we should hide because I heard some hounds. I will write again soon.
