John Fairfield was a white man with rich parents, but saw the evils in slavery. He would perform interesting tasks jut to free black men and women. Once, he pretended to lead a funeral, set a fugitive in a coffin, and lead his family as "mourners". After the "ceremony", he and the fugitives left for Canada. He was not suspected much, because he was a white man and most assumed he was a slave owner who was taking his slaves to a sale, or something of the sort. Hope this helps :)
