RBC: Chapter Ten.

The tattered man is still in awe over how Jim had so much strength in the time when he would be thought weakest. Henry began to notice that the tattered man was turning a shade of blue. He did not want him to die too. He says that there is no way he is going to die too. He will not because he has his children at home that need him. It was just an impossibility that he would die now. The man went off on a tangent about how wounds are not always see, but still are there. That maybe that was what happened to Henry. This topic had brought grand conviction upon him and he wanted to get out of it. Henry begins to notice that this man is acting like Jim did. Like dumb and animal like. The disease seemed to be there. Henry is mistaken by the tattered man for his friend and he seems to have gone crazy. Henry wishes he were almost dead. He had envy for those dead soldiers laying there. The things the tattered man said "thrust like a knife". He knew he could not keep his running from the battle a secret forever.
