Bissell is the counted — the 'largest workforce' that's the region's claim, the 'many fled' that's the escapes plural.

The 'bold escapes' is the title — the 'freedom sought' that's the program named, the 'multiple' that's the pattern found. The 'Bellefontaine Road' is the located — the 'house still stands' that's the site kept, the 'NTF '24' that's the recent marked. Bissell is the uncovered — the 'slavery's seat' that's the mansion's truth, the 'escapes counted' that's the resistance found.
