An indentured servant was a man or woman who - often as a result of heavy debts - sold himself into the service of his creditor to work off his debt. Although the person who did this remained technically a free man, he was not free to refuse to work when and where his boss/creditor decided to put him to work - unpaid of course, since this was how the indentured servant worked off his debt. For many, indentured service was very much akin to slavery.
