Wallace Turnage is not a famous person, but historians are fascinated with the discovery of the former slave’s story. In a letter written to his family 100 years ago, Turnage recorded a vivid account of his escape to freedom. Dr. Joseph S. Moore, assistant professor of history at Gardner-Webb University, studied this handwritten document and other slave narratives during a seminar this summer at Yale University in New Haven, Conn.https://digitalcommons.gardner-webb.edu/gardner-webb-newscenter-archive/1846/thumbnail.jp
