Douglass ' friends and mentors feared that the publicity would draw the attention of his ex-owner, Hugh Auld, who might try to get his " property " back.

In a graphic passage, Douglass asked Auld how he would feel if Douglass had come to take away his daughter Amanda as a slave, treating her the way he and members of his family had been treated by Auld.

Douglass believed that the attack on federal property would enrage the American public.

But Douglass also asked, " Can any colored man, or any white man friendly to the freedom of all men, ever forget the night which followed the first day of January 1863, when the world was to see if Abraham Lincoln would prove to be as good as his word?
