Excerpt from Narrative of Henry Box Brown: Who Escaped From Slavery, Enclosed in a Box Three Feet Long, Two Wide, and Two and a Half High Did Lazarus astonish his weeping sisters, and the sur rounding multitude, as he emerged from his house of clay, clad in the habiliments of the grave, and did joy unfeigned spread throughout that gazing throng? How much more astonishing seemed the birth of Mr. Brown, as he came forth from a box, clothed not in the habi liments of the grave, but in those of slavery, worse than the' silent house of death, as his acts had testified.
