Underground Railroad 5.If you come to a white mans house that has a lantern would you trust them to knock and let them bring you in and help you to freedom? Yes because if it has a lantern then it is safe and if it don't you wouldn't bother to see if they would help because they would report you.

Underground Railroad 6.When you enter the house would it give you a warm welcome and warm food? A warm welcome and hot food—that’s what you find inside the house.
