The Underground Railroad wasn't a real railroad, but a network of courageous people who helped slaves secretly travel from the South to the North. In 1850, President Fillmore signed the Fugitive Slave Act, which made it illegal to help a slave run away and required officials to return escaped slaves to their owners.

What did the signers of the mayflower compact promote by setting up a government and laws?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
The signers of the Mayflower Compact had signed the treaty to ensure that there will be peace between the Saints and the Strangers. The Mayflower Voyage is a journey that is set-up by the Pilgrims from Great Britain. These Pilgrims fled the country to avoid persecution against the Anglican Church of England. However, not all of the pilgrims are strangers. Many of them are also saints(or religious clergies). These saints wanted to live a better life. They hope that they would find this life in the New World.  Because of these two opposing groups, the signers of the contract had brought this out to ensure the peace amongst the pilgrims and to establish a government that would keep the peace and order in their new colony.
