What is your question?

You can find this in Chapter Seven.

 

The huge green fragment of ice on which she alighted pitched and creaked as her weight came on it, but she staid there not a moment. With wild cries and desperate energy she leaped to another and still another cake; stumbling--leaping--slipping--springing upwards again! Her shoes are gone--her stockings cut from her feet--while blood marked every step; but she saw nothing, felt nothing, till dimly, as in a dream, she saw the Ohio side, and a man helping her up the bank.

 

"Yer a brave gal, now, whoever ye ar!" said the man, with an oath.

 

 

Eliza recognized the voice and face for a man who owned a farm not far from her old home.

 

"O, Mr. Symmes!--save me--do save me--do hide me!" said Eliza.
