First, his name is Henry Box Brown. He was an abolitionist who's family was sold away from him, seeing that they were all slaves. He one day decided to escape slavery, so his friends helped him to climb into a shipping box, being addressed to an abolitionist in the union. The box was carried, Henry Brown inside, all the way to what I believe was New York. There, he was a free man. From that day on, March 31, he was known as Henry Box Brown. That day also became his artificial birthday.
