But since the legislative act of 1850, when she heard, with perfect surprise and [terrible feelings], Christian and humane people actually recommending the capture of escaped fugitive slaves back into slavery, as a duty forced on good citizens,--when she heard compassionate (caring) and estimable (rational) people, in the free states of the North, arguing and discussing what Christian duty could be on this topic, --she could only think, These men cannot know what slavery is; if they did, such an issue could never be open for discussion. And from this gave me a desire to show it in a living reality (Book)”
