Misconceptions and myths

Both before and long after the Civil War, the Underground Railroad has been misrepresented. As this exhibit shows, sometimes misrepresentations happened on purpose, other times, by accident. Both have contributed to misunderstandings, passed from generation to generation. Is there any item in this exhibit that shows where misunderstandings come from?
