(I THINK) she was an abolitionist,who felt bad for the slaves and wanted to help runaway slaves become free.Which is how she became a "conductor". She often held slaves who wanted to turn back due to fear of being caught,at gunpoint until they agreed to keep moving.She was the most important "conductor" during the war.
