The correct answers are:

He represented them in court.
He helped them escape.

Thomas Garrett helped 2,700 slaves of the Underground Railroad when he worked for 40 years as a Station Master. He was even convicted for helping the Hawkins family, who were enslaved in Maryland, but was able to bail which almost led to his bankruptcy. Despite that, he continued his support to the slaves by representing them in court hearings.
