Showing remarkable business ability, Mrs. Tubman managed several large plantations and encouraged manufacturing in the South, Before the Civil War, she freed her slaves and chartered a boat to send them back to Africa. During the latter years of the Civil War to alleviate the suf- fering ofthe Confederate wounded, she imported from France the first ice machine to reach America. Mrs. Tubman was a member of the First Christian Church which she founded and built. She was a leader in religious thought. She provided the means for young men to study for the ministry, supported missionaries in many parts of the world, endowed chairs in several colleges, and contributed to all civic affairs.
