What angers the townspeople the most when the king is selling the Wilks’ slaves is that:

He separates parents and children in the sale.

 

Separating the parents and children in the sale is a strategy that they thought of to sell the slaves faster. However, the girls found breaking up the family insensitive – which made them upset. There were also a lot of the townspeople who disapproved at separating the families, but the men were still firm on doing it.

The proper answer is “C. He separates parents children in the sale.”


You are referencing a scene from _The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn_ where slaves that once belonged to the now-deceased Peter Wilks are being sold off by the King and Duke.  The fact that the slaves are being sold is not what gets people angry.   What angers people is that the family of slaves is broken up in order to have the sold faster separately than they would have been had they been sold together as a family.

Over the next few days, the church bells toll continually for the dead, as August makes way to September. The Ogilvie family, along with other affluent families, flees from the city as the fever spreads. Business at the coffeehouse almost completely vanishes. One day Mattie and her grandfather walk into another part of town and stop by a printer's shop. They learn that the College of Physicians has printed handbills advising several strategies for avoiding the fever, and that the city has decided to stop ringing church bells when people die. The almshouse has been shut down to prevent contagion, hundreds of people have died of the fever, and the rich families and the politicians have fled the city. After visiting the print shop Mattie and her grandfather return home where, just outside of the coffeehouse, they see a man wheeling a body.
