The thing that I will do is pay my neighbor, so he wont say nothing to any one. If he dosent want that then I will kill the neighbor. Then I will telll the slave to go and run to another country so he could be free.

If you were a slave who was planning to runaway, what kind of plans would you make? How would you know when the time was right to leave?
The thing that i will do is that I will dig a hole, then talk with all the slaves to plan how to kill the owner so we could be free. We will know when to leave when the hole is big, and will we kill the owner, we will have to star runing a lot, so they wound not catch us.
