Harriet Tubman returned to the South again and again. She devised
clever techniques that helped make her “forays” successful, including
using the master’s horse and buggy for the first leg of the journey;
leaving on a Saturday night, since runaway notices couldn’t be placed
in newspapers until Monday morning; turning about and heading south
if she encountered possible slave hunters; and carrying a drug to use on
a baby if its crying might put the fugitives in danger. Tubman even carried
a gun which she used to threaten the fugitives if they became too tired or
decided to turn back, telling them, “You’ll be free or die.” < >
