Synopsis:
Randolph, Ohio, 1842. Allen Jay and his family are Quakers, members of a religion that opposes slavery. Allen’s home is a stop on the Underground Railroad, and his family helps escaping slaves reach freedom. When Henry appears in the Jays’ yard, Allen must help him reach the next safe house. But can they escape the slave catchers?
