OCR: Faces reflecting a life of hardship, a group of escaped slaves guided by Harriet Tubman (far left) likely stole along creek beds and through swamps and forests to evade slave hunters and keen-nosed bloodhounds. Though appearing diffident before the camera, Tubman fought an unstinting battle in the face of southern injustice. One of the railroad's best-known conductors, she ventured south of the Mason-Dixon line more than a dozen times, freeing 300 men, women and children . Photographer: Bettmann Archive
