Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Henry Bibb, an American Slave, Written by Himself

INTRODUCTION
14/28

Bibb sprang for the fence and gained the top of it, where he was seized and dragged back.

They took him immediately before William Doty, a Justice of infamous notoriety as an accomplice of kidnappers, proved property, paid charges and took him away.
His distressed friends were surprised by his re-appearance in a few days after, the Wednesday following, as they think.
He reached the house of Dr.Woods, (a colored man since deceased,) before day-break, and staid until dusk.

Mrs.
Path, John Woodson and others made up about twelve dollars for him.

Woodson accompanied him out of town a mile and bid him "God speed." He has never been here since.

Woodson and Clark saw him at Detroit two years ago.
Yours truly, WILLIAM BIRNEY.
