Cassy made a plan for her and Emmeline. No one wanted to go to the attic（阁楼）in Legree’s house because everyone thought it was full of ghosts and Legree was afraid of ghosts. Cassy’s room was under it. One day, Cassy moved all her furniture to a room very far from it. When Legree asked why, she replied, “I can’t sleep. There were noises in the attic, every night, from midnight until the morning.”

“Noises in the attic?” said Legree, worried, “Who is up there?”

“I don’t know,” said Cassy and she went to her room.

Then she put things in the attic that made strange noises when the wind blew. The slaves heard them and started talking about ghosts. Legree became scared of passing near the stairs to the attic.

Then one night Cassy and Emmeline ran away. They stayed near the house and waited. When Legree left to look for them with his slaves and dogs, Cassy and Emmeline went into the attic.

Legree was angry when he came back and he was sure that Tom knew something.

“Tom,” said Legree, “tell me where those two are, or I will kill you. Speak!”

“I have nothing to say,” said Tom.

“Are you telling me that you don’t know?”

“I know, Master, but I can’t tell you.”

Legree hit Tom and kicked him again and again, until he thought Tom was dead. Then he left. But Tom was not dead.

Cassy and Emmeline stayed in the attic for days, until Legree stopped looking for them. Then one night they escaped again and nobody followed them. They were free.

Two days later, a young man arrived. He was George Shelby. When he received the letter from Miss Ophelia, he went looking for Tom to buy him back, but it took a long time to find him.

Legree took George to see Tom. Tom was lying on the floor, waiting to die. When George saw him, he felt sick.

“Uncle Tom, my poor, poor friend!”

Tom opened his eyes. “Master George! You remembered me! It’s going well.” said Tom and then he closed his eyes forever.

When George turned, Legree was standing behind him. “Who cares about a dead slave!” said Legree. George hit Legree so hard that he fell to the ground. Then ________.
