Answer:

Jordan Anderson was released when abolitionist union soldiers camped on the farm he worked for.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jordan Anderson was an American, former slave and author of "A Freedman's Letter to His Old Master." This letter was an ironical reply to Anderson's former boss, who ordered him to return to the farm after he was released. he never returned because he was a free man and had no obligation to obey orders. Anderson's freedom came in 1864 when Union Army soldiers camped on his farm and took the liberty of freeing him.
