chapter 18
chapter 18
Tom genuinely cares about St. Clare. When he speaks to him about how he is good to everyone except himself, he means it. Tom has been taking more responsibility lately with both his master's financial and personal matters. Tom worries that St. Clare attends too many drinking parties, and successfully begins to reform his master's ways.
