T. (Ida Treadwell) 1848 1918 Thurston, Ida Treadwell Eckerson, M. Eckerson, Margaret The Bishop's Shadow Produced by Dave Maddock and The Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The Bishop's Shadow" by I. T. Thurston is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows the lives of Tode Bryan, a young street boy living in Boston, and his interactions with characters such as Nan Hastings and a kind, influential bishop who inspires Tode to seek a better life. The narrative explores themes of redemption, social class, and the impact of kindness on the lives of vulnerable individuals. The opening of the novel presents a vivid depiction of Boston's rainy streets and introduces Tode, a 13-year-old boy who finds a woman's lost pocketbook during a chaotic moment involving a near accident. Instead of returning it, he keeps the money, only to later encounter his struggles with guilt and the mundane challenges of life as a street child. This part of the story sets the stage for Tode's potential transformation, highlighting his desire for a better life, his growing relationship with Nan and her sick younger brother, who he learns to care for, and the moral dilemmas he faces as he confronts his past behaviors. Overall, the beginning establishes a mix of adventure, compassion, and the possibility of change in Tode’s life through relatable challenges and unexpected interactions.
