In Chapters V and VI, Douglass advances the idea that slavery is not only damaging to the slave, but also to the slaveholder. He does so in two ways. The first one is through the character of Sophia Auld. She is a kind mistress who treats him well and wants to teach him how to read and write. However, after scolding from her husband, she turns into a cruel person.

The second case is that of Mrs. Hamilton. The woman owns two slave girls, Mary and Henrietta. She is extremely cruel to them as well. Douglass cites these examples in order to show that owning slaves causes slaveholders to become cruel people, and it eliminates everything that is human, kind and compassionate from their personality (thus, dehumanizing them). In this way, slavery damages the owner as much as the slave.

The following sentence has a dangling modifier.
Basile [38]

The sentence that best corrects the original one is option 3) “Noticing that the patio table had been turned over by the storm, Anton flipped it back on its feet.”

In this option, we make it clear that the doer of the action (flipping back the table) is Anton and in the original sentence is not mentioned.

The first option is incorrect since it says that the storm flipped back the chair instead of Anton.

Option number two is also incorrect since the meaning is not clear, especially the 2nd part of the sentence.

And the last option is also incorrect because it uses the passive voice in both parts of the sentence, when it should be using acting voice in the 2nd part, making emphasis on the doer of the action (Anton) rather than on the action itself.
