What did a indentured servant do?

An indentured servant is a person who either willingly wants to serve, or is kidnapped and forced to. An indentured servant usually serves from 4 to 7 years. They are provided with food, shelter, and clothing. At the end of their servitude, if the master is gracious enough, would give them clothing, food, a rifle, and scarcely some land. Only people of the white sort would be an indentured servant. If you were a slave, you could not become and indentured servant.
