    Technically he could be considered to be a freedman, because Illinois outlawed slavery. However, the Supreme Court ruled that his time spent in Illinois didn't change the fact that he remained a slave after his master died, so he was not empancipated, and thus was still a slave.

    The answer is D: He was a slave.
