You are a member of the Underground Railroad. A small group of runaway slaves has come to your home to be hidden. All goes well until a neighbor who is not sympathetic to the cause becomes suspicious. What do you do?

I think, should tell my people to go to another part because maybe that suspicious neightbor can tell our ouners that we are ther and then they can take us back to work and being a sleve again and i think that would be the worsth thing that could happen to a slave.
