1. Pie was a colored prostitute that worked for Ms. Abby in Pikesville. She was also the first woman Henry had ever saw in a while. Henry also loved her as if she was his mother.

2. Ms Abby was Pie's owner and owned all the other prostitutes at Pikesville Hotel. She was described by Henry to be ugly and mean looking.

3. Sibonia is a feeble minded slave. She is also Libby's sister and together they work at the pen behind Ms. Abby's hotel. She speaks really well for someone who seems crazy so Onion thought she might be faking being feeble minded.

4. Darg is described by Henry to be tall as Frederick but ugly. He was raw powerful and looked big. He tends to the slaves in the pen.

5. The Reverend used to be part of John Brown's army and then left the army to become a pro slave. He was responsible for the death of Fred and the reason John Brown set off without saying anything.

GLB Reading Log Questions

1. The Good lord bird means wisdom. The Good Lord represents understanding that will last a whole lifetime. The Good Lord bird is the title of the book.

2. Henry's nickname is Onion and the Old man gave him that name when he ate the onion that was a good luck charm for him.

3. His rationale was that every slave lies. He stated "No man or woman in bondage ever prospered stating their true thoughts to the boss" (McBride 30). I do think it is justifiable because if slaves were to tell the truth they would be treated poorly than they already are,
