in this account ellen goes upstairs and william pulls out a pistol and lays it on the table. he shows it to the housekeeper and he says he reveals who they are and basically declares his willingness to use this weapon which he has had with him presumably on his journey. where this weapon came from is a mystery really. definitely in macon, if they had been caught with a weapon like this they would have lost their lives for sure. so we don't know. but it's amazing to know that they had that as a last resort on their journey. susan: your book has a map of their journey and it demonstrates that it is both arduous with so many changes of transportation and risks along the way, both physical and security risks. i am going to invite our viewers to read this because we only have 30 minutes left in our conversation ended as is lots of interesting detail. but when they got to philadelphia they were on free soil, why did they not just stay in philadelphia? ilyon woo: philadelphia was dangerous, they asked are we safe here? because as soon as they arrive the boarding housekeeper said the
