What does the narrator mean by the reference to freeman's deed of manumission, "At least in the sense, your gamble paid off"

Answer :

Parrain

Answer: The Narrator meant that Freeman's risky actions had given had freedom.

Explanation:

Alexander Freeman was granted Manumission which is freedom from slavery by the British after she joined their side in the American Revokution. What the British did not know was that she was a woman masquerading as a man so that she could be allowed to fight.

This was a huge gamble that paid off in a sense because she was granted freedom from slavery. However, the narrator said this was "in a sense" because the freedom was granted to her male alter ego, Alexander and not her.
