His grandmother told him to join his siblings and he did so reluctantly. After a while one of the children yelled out that his grandmother was gone and with that he fell to the ground and wept. Frederick would soon learn the harsh world of slave children. The slave children of Aaron were fed cornmeal mush in a trough witch they were called to, Douglas later wrote like so many pigs. The children made homemade spoons with oyster shells and had to compete with the other children for food.
