Slaves were treated so bad majority of the slaves would take the risk of running away. Then to stay and be worked to death or worse beat to death
In Michigan there were many people who were against slavery so when slaves were to runaway they had houses to hide in. Michigan was very popular place runaway slaves went to because it's right next to canada
when slaves made it to canada they were free . They didn't have to worry about someone coming to get them and make them slaves again
