The crowd gossips that the man seemed careless because he may have put his money in a pocket full of holes. The crowd may be judgmental because wealth is scarce and difficult to come by. Carelessness with such a large sum of money would be judged harshly by those who have comparatively little. Considering that Jonathan no longer has his mining job and many others were in the same place, the ex gratia money would be important for his family's survival in the near future. It is easier for the people to blame the man for his carelessness than to accept that everyday people are helpless against the "heartless ruffian" or the thief in the night.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

A thesis statement is a short, usually one sentence-long claim written near the beginning of your paper, which serves as a point of reference, a roadmap or a compass for the whole paper. It's written immediately after the topic is introduced and declares the stance you're going to take on it
