the slaves had face the punishment of running away or was whipped or killed because of the slave codes.the slaves had went up to the far north by maryland because a white  man could  come up north and take a black man,even if the black man was free he still had to go so they traveled as far north.slaves would do anything to not get caught giving a baby knock out medicine making him go to sleep anything. i hope this help
