How much was the reward for the capture of harriet Tubman?

Harriet Tubman was known for successfully getting slaves to freedom in the north, and knowing slave owners, they really did not like that very much, they wanted her success to end, so they put up a higher reward for her capture, so more slaves would stay on their plantation. So it was really "the higher the reward, the more likely people would really look for her."

What did Harriet Tubman do in the US Civil War?

Harriet Tubman escaped at the age of 29 from slavery in Maryland where she was born, when her owner died. She became a conductor for the Underground Railroad and was later a nurse and a spy for the Northern side in the American Civil War. She made 19 different trips from the South, going north to the safety of Canada. She saved 300 slaves. Slaves were hidden in covered carts with false bottoms and driven between the underground railroad 'stations' where they were fed and hidden during daylight hours before moving on. They often had to hide in forests, cross rivers and climb mountains. Slave owners offered a reward of $40,000 for Harriet's capture, but she was never caught. After the war Harriet ran a home for elderly African - Americans until she died in 1903.
