In the fall of 1849, Susan quit teaching and moved home to the family farm near Rochester, New York. Before she even unpacked her bags, she hopped back into the wagon, grabbed the reins from her father, and drove those horses straight into town. She couldn't wait to meet the man her father talked so much about--the man who made a daring escape from slavery, gave eloquent speeches about equality, and stood up for women.
