Who was Thomas Auld? FD’s master Lived in St. Michaels, Maryland Major Problems: alcoholic, anger issues Not Born Slave Owner Poor Owner: whipped & starved slaves Religious (Methodist)
Who was Edward Covey? “Slave Breaker”: paid to train FD over 1 year Poor white; needed his reputation Sneaky, sensitive to what others think, violent, uncaring Religious (unknown religion) Lived in St. Michaels, Maryland
Who was William Freeland Educated Southern “gentleman” Honest, less attitude, less violent (FD never whipped by him) Small Farmer: paid T. Auld for FD’s services for two years Better slave owner: no beatings, plenty of food
