Answer :
Answer:
Wesley Harris, the writer of this account is trying to escape slavery.
Explanation:
- This was deduced from the study of the account of Wesley Harris in "The Underground Rail Road"by William Still .
- The slaves escaping from the Underground railway could never trust the people who were helping them as the helpers were often deceivers who would punish them, or worse-sell them back to their masters.
- And exactly this happened to Wesley and his escaping friends- but they confronted the people. But just Wesley managed to escape, and his friends returned to the masters.
