Aided Negroes in
Antebellum Bay
Grandfather of Mrs. M. S. Briggs Was
One of Those Assisting in Es
caping of Slaves of South.
Terrified runaway slaves, pursued
by baying bloodhounds, fled from
their Missouri masters into Iowa, j
Their first destination was the little
Quaker settlement of Salem in south
western Henry county, a hot-bed of
anti-slavery agitation and one of the
important links on the underground
railroad through southeastern Iowa.
The town was more than once threat
ened with fire, and several of its In
habitants were informed that hang
ing was imminent for them.
The older settlers in Salem still re
late tales of ante-bellum days when
the question of slavery was a rife sub
ject of discussion of pioneer firesides.
One of these stories concerns the ac
tivities of two courageous Friends,
Thomas Frazier and Eli Jessup, who
befriended Negroes at the risk of
their lives. Irate Missourians had
threatened to shoot the two men if
they persisted in aiding the blacks
across the Missouri line, through
southern Iowa, and on to Canada.
One night as Frazier and Jessup
were taking a load of Negro men
and women toward the underground
station at Salem, they heard the dis
tant baying of bloodhounds accom
panied by shots. Frazier stopped the
horses and quietly ordered the Ne
groes to take refuge in the thick tim
ber at some distance from the road.
That night a Negro boy was born and ;
the Negro mother in an effort to show !
her gratitude named the child
Frazier Jessup. Friends in Salem of-
ten wondered whether the mother!
and her babe ever reached Canada
and what became of the boy. Coun
cil Bluffs Nonpareil.
Thomas Frazier was great grand
father of Mrs. M. S. Briggs. The oc
casion above recorded occurred in
1S55, when a crowd of irate Mis-
; sourians sought to burn the town of
Salem without success.

i3 visiting school friends here.

table by Mi3s Lois Meade.
JAILED FOR THEFT
Beatrice. Louis Johnson of Filleyj
