Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl Chapter 19 Summary
The Children Sold
No luck. Dr. Flint returns from New York empty-handed. Well, duh, she's hiding right down the road.
Mr. Sands (quick refresher: this is the father of Linda's kids) sends an agent to buy Linda’s children and her brother.
Eventually, Dr. Flint agrees—but only because he doesn't know who he's really selling to.
Mr. Sands now owns Ellen, Benny, and William, who are all really stoked. Well, as much as they can be, since they're still human property.
Dr. Flint finds out that Mr. Sands owns the children and flips out. Now he's
never
going to sell Linda.
