Elijah of Buxton Predictions

For the book Elijah of Buxton, I have five predictions of how the story might end but I am the most confident that it will be #4.

Prediction #1: Elijah helps the slaves that he sees in the stable get to freedom. He busts their chains loose with his rocks or his pistol, then he brings them to Buxton on Ol' Flapjack and Jingle boy. When he gets there, he realizes he forgot about the money, but it's too late.

Prediction #2: First, Elijah frees the slaves and brings them to Buxton. Then he realizes they are mr. Leroy's family and it's a happy ending for everyone.

Prediction#3: Elijah gives up on freeing the slaves, and steals the money from the white men who took it from the Preacher. Next, Elijah buys Mr. Leroy's family out of slavery and brings
them to Buxton.

Prediction #4: Elijah frees the slaves, steals the money, and brings the to Buxton. Then, he buys Mr. Leroy's family out of slavery.

Prediction #5: Elijah chickens out of the whole thing because he's a fra-gile boy, and neither Mr. Leroy's family or the runawayslaves at thestable are freed.
