CHAPTER ONE
Aunt Polly
Decides Her Duty
Aunt Polly is searching the house for Tom, her dead sister's son,
who lives with her. She finds him hiding in a closet, his mouth
covered in jam. She is about to cane Tom when he cries; "Look
behind you, Aunt!" As her attention is distracted, he escapes over
the garden fence. Aunt Polly reflects on Tom's mischievous nature.
She feels guilty for not disciplining him better, but on the other
hand, when she does give him a beating, her heart almost breaks.
She plans to make him work the following day to punish him. It will
be a Saturday, and the other boys will be enjoying a day off.
Tom returns to help Jim, the black slave boy, saw the firewood.
Tom's younger half-brother, Sid, is also helping. During supper,
Aunt Polly questions Tom to try to find out if he has skipped school
that afternoon to go swimming, as she suspects. He says that he
pumped water on his head, which explains why it is damp. She
inspects his collar and sees that it is still sewn up, confirming his
claim that he has not gone swimming, as he would have had to
unpick the sewing in order to remove his shirt. Aunt Polly seems
convinced. But Sid points out that Aunt Polly used white thread, and
now the thread on Tom's collar is black.
Tom escapes from the house again, angry with Sid for betraying
him. He knows he is not "the model boy of the village," but he
knows the boy who is, and loathes him.
2. As Tom is wandering along the street, he meets an overdressed boy.
Tom provokes the boy and the two insult each other until a fight
breaks out. Tom gets the better of the boy, who runs off home. Tom
follows him and loiters outside the boy's house until he is driven off
by the boy's mother. Tom arrives home late and creeps in through
the window. He is caught by Aunt Polly, who is more determined
than before to make him work the next day.
