This happens when Ruby becomes disappointed with Tom when the hose leaks and Ruby can no longer dive. The two stop hanging out, and Tom loses her friendship. 

The light, then, is the light that her friendship brought to his life. Her friendship is light -- it is happiness and is joy to Tom. When the two friends stop hanging out, the light goes out of the marsh. The author is saying the joy has gone out of Tom's life.

Read the excerpt from Washington Irving's "The Devil and Tom Walker," and then answer the question.
Bond [772]
Sad and stingy probably would not work in this situation, but sly and mean are possibilities. Although either could be correct, I would go with sly, which means they are sneaky and conniving. I’m not a 100% sure, but I believe sly is the best answer. I hope this helps!
