SCENE IX
The Underground Railroad

Time: An autumn night in 1858
Place: Kitchen of the Lorenz Ott home, west of Deerfield,
Harrator;

Schoolhouses built, church organizations begun, and the
physical and social needs of the families cared for,
the early citizens of Deerfield.were free to turn their
thoughts to the building of thS 'village , General stores
were established at the Corners, first Cole's, then Hoyt's

There was no railroad as yet, and one traveled to Chicago
on foot, by wagon, or walked to Port Clinton to take the
Chicago and Northwestern train. From.the building of the
village, attention turned to the affairs of the nation*
Many were the arguments and the discussions around the
red hot stove at the general store - which was the scene
of old time oratory. Farmers and local politicians
scanned the newspapers, and read aloud the speeches of
Lincoln and Douglas* The burning questions of slavery,
state rights, and the preservation of the Union held the
attention of all*
Secretly, some of the citizens of our community en­
gaged in helping fugitive slaves to reach places of secur­
ity in the free states and in Canada, The explanation of
the lack of information which is available concerning the
so-called Underground Railroad is to be found.in the.se­
crecy in which it was enshrouded. The participants in
underground operations were quiet people, and their special
work was to harbor fugitives and help them toward freedom.
The runaways were hidden in churches, barns, and garrets,
provided with rest add refreshments, and usually after a day
or more conveyed in the night to the house of . the next
friend, 'One of the abolitionists who is credited with as­
sisting in the escape of fugitives was Lyman Wilmot,
whose name has figured so much in the upbuilding of the
community - and in the annals of our town we have the
story of one slave - Andrew Jackson - who sought refuge
in the homes of Wilmot and Lorenz Ott, his neighbor, and
remained there for some time, until he could safely be
conveyed northward.
(It is after dark, in the kitchen of the Ott home,
Lorenz Ott is reading a newspaper besides the kerosene
lamp. The mother, and daughter Sarah, age 16, are
sewing, and Samuel, age 14, and Eli, 12, are playing
A signal is heard out-of-doors - a.
checkers .
" shrill tremolo like that of an owl, This is followed
hy three distinct, hut subdued knocks, Mother and
father raise heads, listen intently, hut no one moves)

LORENZ OTT:

Who's there?

WILMOT (Off stage)

(Ott opens door L, while Mrs, Ott pulls shades, and
children draw near, watching fearfully. Wilmot
enters, pulling in a black man, quickly and closing door.
WILMOT:

'

£

"A friend with friends."

He has just arrived, after a long hard trip, I fear my
house is being watched, and under cover of darkness I
brought him across the field, I think he needs rest and foo^.
Poor fellow, he was chattering with cold when he arrived.
Will you take care of him?

�3
Lorenz Ott:

Yes, you know you can depend on me, Wilmot,
(Wilmot leaves, and the negro is welcomed in a
sincere hut subdued manner. The mother hurries to
set food before him, assisted by the daughter. Boys
and father gather around the colored man, asking ques­
tions)

OTT;

SLAVE:

What is your name?
Andrew Jackson, massa..

OTT:

Where have you come from?

SLAVE:

I come from Mississip*, massa?

SAMUEL:

Jiminy, that's a long way1.

SLAVE:

It take weeks and weeks, massa, and I was scairt de
bloodhoun's dey get me again.

SAMUEL:

LORENZ OTT:
SLAVE:

Again?

Hoy/ long did it take?

Did they ever send the bloodhouses after you?

Yaas s'r, one time when I run away, de dawgs dey track
me, but dis time a man he tell me de sun rise in
de eas* and set in de wes' and if I go nawth, it get
colder, and if I go south it get wamer, and dat all I
know, and he ah I am1.
How did you escape?

(Dramatically)
My massa, he a kin* man, but he sol me
down de ribbah, so I tuk off in de night, I dim out of
de window in de dawk* I 'scaped cross de ribbah, and Lor*
a massa, it take a powahful long time to come nawth, it s
shuah do. I hid in de confields in de day, and I eat
de co'n ffom de stalks, and I trabbel at night , Dey tell
me bout de undergroun railroad in place dey call ^ontiac,
den I stay all night at a doctah's house deah, I trab­
bel on to a preachah's house in a town dey done call
Ottawa, and from deah to Massa Ca'pentah's house in the
big city. Mass Gapentah, he good man, and done brought me
to Massa Wilmot's house. Somebody want to stop us, but
Massa. Ca'pentah he bring down de hosswhup on do-ese
bosses backs, and lickety-cut, we pass 'em right up*
(Laughs heartily, and boys laugh-with him)
(Boys gather round him with books and slates, Sarah
sews, listening to their talk) Mr. and Mrs, Ott
converse in the foreground, about place to hide
Jackson, and best manner in which he can be passed on
to the next "station" on his
north)

MRS. OTT:
OTT:

Would it be safe for him to go on in a day or two?
I don't see how it will be possible • You heard what
Wilmot said* I am afraid we shall have to keep him
here for a while, until those strangers that have been

hanging about town have left.
MRS. OTT:

Do you think they are really "nigger catchers?11

OTT:

I am not sure , Their actions seem suspicious, They
were in Hoyt's store this morning, sitting around the
stove with the other men, and asked many questions. They
pretend to he here on business, but no one knows what
their business is.

MRS, OTT:

Isn't there some way that he can be passed on safely?

OTT:

I could hide him under a wagon load of sacks of bran,
as 7/ilmot did the last one, but I think that is not
necessary. Once in the woods along the river, they can
never get him, unless they have bloodhounds, and that
they do not have , Y/hen he is fed and rested, I will
take him through the woods to the river, on some dark
night when the moon is under, and direct him to the
next 11 station," He can follow the river for miles,
and easily reach there before morning,

He needs better clothes in place of those rags, Acli,
how can people live like that? Maybe, Lorenz, if you
have not too much to do you can make him a new suit
before he goes. He can sleep in the attic, and perhaps
help a little with the work until then, Hoy/, I must go
and see if little Clara has been awakened by all this
noise, and get a bed ready for him,
