“[Harriet Tubman] also looked out for other African-Americans in town, opening the first home in the country for elderly and indigent blacks. When Dorothy and Ros were small, the elderly Tubman rode a bicycle up and down South Street, stopping to ask for food donations.

One of Ros's nieces said, "Mother had coffee with Harriet and would always leave a ham or turkey for her for the holiday.”
