MONKEY WRENCH

The Monkey Wrench pattern meant the slaves were to get tools together that might be needed on their journey to freedom. Tools included items such as something to build shelter with, compasses for determining which direction to travel in, and tools to serve as their weapons. This could also mean to pack clothes or food.
