Foreshadowing

Explanation:

This is most likely to be an example of foreshadowing. In this passage, Miss Ophelia is worried about the possibility of Topsy being sold if her owner were to die. This is why she wants to own her as soon as possible and thus ensure her well-being. This is an example of foreshadowing because the owner will indeed die shortly, and the scenario will take place, except that it will be other slaves who are sold, and not Topsy.
