Favorite Character from Uncle Tom
Over the summer I read Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe. The book had great insight to the time before the Civil War even though it mainly focused on the stories of 2 slaves, Tom and Eliza. After reading the book I realized that even though the times of slavery were hard, people like St. Clare made it easier for as many slaves as he could. In Uncle Tom's Cabin St. Clare was my favorite character because of his kind nature, soft heart, and ability to keep calm. Throughout the story St. Clare treated Tom with the utmost respect even though he owned him and he was his slave. St. Clare was a kind man to all his slaves, his daughter, his wife and anyone around him. He was against slavery but even though he still practiced it, he treated the slaves with compassion. St. Clare treated Tom as if he was a friend and took advice from him. He let Tom tell him to stop drinking whereas other slave owners would think that
He stayed calm and helped others get through the ordeal. Clare was honest and kind to Tom and it made him stand out among the other slave owners in the book. I admire that in him because it shows his ability to stay calm in tough situations and take control when needed. As Eva was dying, she asked her father to make arrangements for the slaves so they end up with good hearted people and to let Tom free. Clare was strong and able to stay calm and I admire that in him. Clare's soft heart molded his daughter into what she is and how she thinks. Although Eva was his only daughter and he was broken up over her death, he did not show it by shedding a single tear. His soft heart and gentle ways proved to me what an outstanding character he was. Clare was the only one that stood out to me. Soft hearted as he was he promised his daughter that he would.
