Phoenix Jackson was a black woman who was on her way to town on the early morning of December.
Here are the obstacles she faced:
- As she was about to go down the hill, her dress was caught in a bush.
- She also needed to cross a log on the creek so she can get to the other side.
- She also needed to go through a barbed-wire fence and in order to do this, she needed to crawl and creep.
- A black dog came at her after she crossed the swamp. As she hit it with a cane, she was thrown into a ditch.
- She also walked up a tower of steps into the building as she entered it.
