Linda manages to get her freedom by getting to the north. She gets there with the help of many people, which includes her son, Benny, her Uncle Phillip, and her friend, Peter. She reaches New York, but she still wasn’t free. The daughter of Dr. Flint came to reclaim her because she was never released from her ownership. Mrs. Bruce then hires a man to negotiate with Mr. Dodge for Linda’s freedom. Mr. Dodge the lets her go for 300$.
Linda wasn’t happy with the fact that her freedom was bought. She still feels like she is property to someone. She felt that as a person she wasn’t something that should be bought or sold, and on top of all of that she was sold in a free state. She is very compassionate about this, but even though she is upset with how she was freed she is still happy that she is now a free woman.
