In Chapter 17, Frederick escapes Covey’s pursuit, receives help from Sandy and his wife, and returns determined to defend himself against another beating. After resisting Covey for two hours, he escapes whipping, regains his self-respect, and finds that Covey leaves him physically alone for their remaining six months together.
Cosa succede

- Sandy takes Frederick to his wife’s home, where they feed him and discuss why escape appears impossible.
- Frederick reluctantly accepts Sandy’s protective root and returns on Sunday to find Covey unexpectedly pleasant.
- Before daylight Monday, Covey tries to bind Frederick, who fights back and drives off Covey’s helper Hughs.
- Bill and Caroline refuse to help Covey; Covey strikes Caroline and finally abandons his struggle with Frederick.
- Frederick describes his restored confidence and suggests that Covey avoids public punishment to protect his reputation.
