Hello there! I'm assuming you've come here to learn all
about Runaway slaves and slave advertisements. I'll be talking about what
it was like to be a runaway slave and what slave advertisements are. After
you read this you read this you will be a master on runaway slaves and
slave advertisements. Let's get started.
Let's start off with slave advertisement's. Usually slave
master's will make up a advertisement for one of there slave that has ran
away. (Kind of like a runaway dog or cat advertisement). They would first
put in how much of a reward they would offer. It would often depend on how
much a the slave meant to the master. If the slave was a young strong man
or woman,
the reward might be from two hundred dollars to five hundred dollars. If
the slave was an old man or woman or was disabled their might be a small
or no reward at all. They might not even be an advertisement up.
