The Wellingtons run an underground railroad station that hides fugitive slaves away from the authorities and transports them from one station to another.
Polly, the fourth among the six children of the Wellington household, was used to people going in and out of their house. One day, Polly was asked to fetch water and bring the bucket down the narrow stairs to the secret room where Polly saw her mother taking care of a young girl named Hattie. Lying on one of their mattresses, Hattie was too weak to carry on their journey to another station. Hence, she was left behind and stayed under the care of the Wellingtons - then and there, Polly knew that they would be great friends.
