Predictions and Inferences
In the beginning of the story I predicted that loophole of retreat was somewhere she hid or lived in. I inferred that Dr.Flint used to be her slave owner and that he really wanted to find her.
Examples Of Literary Terms
-Antagonist- Dr.Flint was trying to hunt down the slave girl.
