Dear Alexis,
Hey Alexis, today is the first day of freedom, and it feels great.My journey on the Underground Railroad was exhausting. At first it was scary, but then I got used to it.It took 35 days to get to the north. I really had to thank Ms. Harriett Tubman for helping me get through the cold and damp nights.I had to travel undercover. Sometimes I wished that I could leave in the daytime because I could get through my paths better, but if I leave in the daytime then I would get caught and whooped by my master.Whenever I get tired of walking I go rest in a big bush nearby. When I got to the north I celebrated with a big feast at church. I would never go back to the south to do it again.
Sincerely, Chelsea
