excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass by Frederick Douglass

Very soon after I went to live with Mr. and Mrs. Auld, she very kindly commenced to teach me the A, B, C. After I had learned this, she assisted me in learning to spell words of three or four letters. Just at this point of my progress, Mr. Auld found out what was going on, and at once forbade Mrs. Auld to instruct me further, telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read. . . . “Now,” said he, “if you teach that [slave] (speaking of myself) how to read, there would be no keeping him as it would forever unfit him to be a slave. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master. As to himself, it could do him no good, but a great deal of harm. It would make him discontented and unhappy.”

1. Mr. Auld found out what was going on, and at once forbade Mrs. Auld to instruct me further, telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read.

Throughout the course of the existence of slavery in the USA, slaves were not allowed to learn how to read or write as it was an illegal matter. By terms of the law (the words unlawful and unsafe) Mr. Auld shows concern that Frederick will be punished for this actions.

2. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master.

Mr. Auld is showing concern in this sentence as he fears Frederick will become an unmanageable slave by acquiring ideas of rebellion and freedom from his readings, making him of no value to masters and thus condemning him to death.
