| Full Narrative | HENRY FIELDS took the benefit of the Underground Rail Road at the age of eighteen. He fled from the neighborhood of Port Deposit while being " broke in " by a man named Washington Glasby, who was wicked enough to claim him as his property, and was also about to sell him. This chattel was of a light yellow complexion, hearty-looking and wide awake. |
