She escaped with six others, including Leah Hantes, Margaret Clem and her three daughters, and Hall\'s daughter Letty Hall. Lucy\'s husband, Jacob Hall, a slave of Robert Dunkinson, had already escaped to the ship when she and her daughter came on board. All seven slaves were transferred to the Orlando on February 27, 1827. Four of Hall\'s fellow slaves—Margaret Clem and her three daughters—were listed among slaves who arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, between 1815 and 1818.
