Mr Sands

Mr sands comes to own the kids by buying them indirectly from Mr Flint. He hires a slaveowner to buy the two chirldren and Dr Flint sells them to the man and then Mr Sands Buys them from him. Linda trusts Mr. Sands because he is their father but she knows that it is a risky thing to do because slavery corrupts minds. She worries about the children and especially about Ellen who she thinks might have been given as an object. However in the end of the chapter Mr Sands has not done anything to disprove her trust.
