Tom Robinson’s parents were poor, so Tom had to go to work when he was still a boy. It wasn’t easy to find work that he could do: Tom was small and thin. At last he got a place in an office where the work wasn’t too hard, though there was much of it. Tom was paid only six shillings a week for his work. He wasn’t satisfied with the low pay. But for a long time he was afraid to ask for a rise. At last he decided to go to Mr. Marton’s office and ask for a rise. He decided that he would not leave the room until Mr. Marton had promised to give him four shillings more a week.
He slowly opened the door and asked: “May I speak to you, sir?” Tom’s voice sounded much smaller and thinner, as he told him that he wanted a rise of four shillings.
“You are an honest boy and not afraid of work,” Mr. Marton said. “But don’t you think that ten shillings is too much for such a small boy?”
“No, I don’t,” Tom answered. “I am older than I look. To tell you the truth, since I have worked here, I have been so busy that I haven’t had time to grow.”
