Most runaway slaves did not become rebels. Many sought refuge in free states, cities, or with sympathetic individuals who helped them evade capture. Some did join the abolitionist movement and actively worked to end slavery, while others kept a low profile to avoid being recaptured.
Slave owners offered rewards for runaway slaves as a way to incentivize others to capture and return the slaves, protecting their investment. The rewards also sent a message to other slaves that escape attempts would not be tolerated, serving as a deterrent. It was a way for slave owners to maintain control and prevent uprisings.
