Black Beauty, Part 20: riassunto

Part 20 di 49 · 4 min per leggere: part

In 20 Joe Green, Joe interrupts an errand to challenge a carter who brutally whips two horses, then reports him to Mr. Clay and gives evidence before his master. John praises his intervention, the carter is committed for trial, and Joe gains confidence and determination without losing his gentleness.

Cosa succede

  1. John increasingly trusts Joe, and the master sends him on the narrator with an urgent note.
  2. Returning past the brickyard, Joe sees a carter whipping two horses whose heavily loaded cart is stuck in mud.
  3. The carter rejects Joe’s offer to unload bricks, so Joe rides quickly to ask Mr. Clay to intervene.
  4. John praises Joe for opposing cruelty, and a footman summons the boy to give evidence before the master.
  5. Joe’s clear testimony and the horses’ injuries lead to the carter’s committal for trial, while Joe becomes more purposeful.

Cosa notare
