After Henry is freed, William Robbins brags about Henry's bootmaking skills, bringing him business from people all over the county. Robbins also teaches Henry the importance of saving his money for important purchases. Robbins' mentoring of Henry causes Augustus some unhappiness, creating tension between father and son.
