     The book has been very good so far, Jacobs has finally made it away from her masters house but she is still close. I wonder why she is staying so close to Dr. Flint, why doesn't she make her way to the north. " When spring returned, and I in the little patch of green the aperture commanded, I asked myself how many more summers and winters I must be condemned to spend thus" (123). She says she has been staying a long time but why doesn't she move, she is getting crippled in the hole. If she stays any longer she will be permanently crippled and will never be able to run away. Another thing is that Dr. Flint still continues to look for her. This is a good example of how valuable she is to him. " The summer had nearly ended, when Dr. Flint made a third visit to New York, in search of me" (127). After many years he still continues to look for her in New York, why doesn't he try another place or just give up? Ms. Jacobs why do you still stay at your Grandmothers house why don't you continue your voyage to freedom?
