汤姆叔叔的小屋

《汤姆叔叔的小屋(插图本)》故事讲述的是一个叫汤姆的黑奴的悲剧遭遇。汤姆叔叔本是一个叫谢尔比的奴隶主的黑奴，然而谢尔比欠下了债务，于是就把汤姆卖了抵债。汤姆叔叔逆来顺受，很终被辗转卖到了南方的一个种植园，后来由于他不肯说出逃走的女奴卡西的下落，结果被主人狠毒地鞭打地遍体鳞伤。此时，他当年的小主人约翰尼·谢尔比终于长途跋涉找到了他并准备赎买他，但他却很终在小主人的怀抱里永远地闭上了眼睛。回到家乡后，小谢尔比就以汤姆叔叔的名义解放了他名下的所有黑奴并告诉他们，是汤姆叔叔使他们获得了自由。

Concluding Remarks 

    'Ye
    see,'
    said
    Marks
    to
    Haley,
    stirring
    his
    punch
    as
    he
    did
    so,
    'ye
    see,
    we
    has
    justices
    convenient
    at
    all
    p'ints
    along
    shore
    that

    up
    any
    little
    jobs
    in
    our
    line
    quite
    reasonable.
    Tom,
    he

    the
    knockin'
    down
    and
    that
    ar;'and
    I
    come
    in
    all
    dressed
    up——shining
    boots——everything

    when
    the
    swearins
    to

    done.
    You
    oughter
    see
    me
    now,'
    said
    Marks,
    in
    a
    glow
    of
    professional
    pride,
    'how
    I
    can
    tone
    it
    off.
    One
    day,
    I'm
    Mr
    Twickem,
    from
    New
    Orleans;
    'nother
    day,
    I'm
    just
    come
    from
    my
    plantation
    on
    Pearl
    River,
    where
    I
    works
    seven
    hundred
    niggers;
    then,
    again,
    I
    come
    out
    a
    distant
    relation
    of
    Henry
    Clay,
    or
    some
    old
    cock
    in
    Kentuck.
    Talents
    is
    different,
    you
    know.
    Now,
    Tom's
    a
    roarer
    when
    there's
    any
    thumping
    or
    fighting
    to
    be
    done;
    but
    at
    lying,
    he
    an't
    good,
    Tom
    an't——ye
    see
    it
    don't
    come
    natural
    to
    him;
    but
    Lord
    if
    thar's
    a
    feller
    in
    the
    country
    that
    can
    swear
    to
    anything
    and
    everything,
    and
    put
    in
    all
    the
    circumstances
    and
    flourishes
    with
    a
    longer
    face,
    and
    carry't
    through
    better'n
    I
    can,
    why,
    I'd
    like
    to
    see
    him,
    that's
    all!
    I
    b'lieve,
    my
    heart,
    I
    could
    get
    along,
    and
    snake
    through,
    even
    if
    justices
    were
    more
    particular
    than
    they
    is.
    Sometimes
    I
    rather
    wish
    they
    was
    more
    particular;
    'twould
    be
    a
    heap
    more
    relishin'
    if
    they
    was——
    more
    fun,
    yer
    know.'
