Quick i need help. We sailed out of Miles River for Baltimore on a Saturday morning. I remember only the day of the week, for at
that time I had no knowledge of the days of the month, nor the months of the year. On setting sail, I walked aft, and gave to Colonel Lloyd's plantation what I hoped would be the last look. I then placed myself in the bows of the sloop and there spent the remainder of the day in looking ahead, interesting myself in what was in the distance rather than in things near by or behind. —Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass,
Frederick Douglass
