This is an epic story, @raymondpeter. It gives us a view into the complex challenges families can experience when they have limited income. It's amazing that Thompson was able to turn his life around and become governor. I think in the U.S., you cannot obtain that kind of office if have a criminal record. Of course, Thompson's time in prison was in error! But it would still be on his permanent record that he had gone to jail for larceny. It might be different in other countries. Anyway, I loved the ending, and how he forgave Mr. Jerry, and Abigail got to live in a nice home.
