Linda's Freedom

Linda finally gains her freedom when Mrs. Bruce purchases her for $300. After she is purchased she is offered the chance to still live with Mrs. Bruce. Linda serves Mrs. Bruce as being her daughter’s nurse. Linda has mixed emotions after she is purchased in order to be freed. She felt bad because she had to be bought to be free which makes her still feel like she is being sold as an item. Linda came to the north expecting that it would be free, but actually the north has more discrimination. Linda’s grandmother also dies, but she finds out that Linda gets freed before she dies.
