In chapter 5 of the book Uncle Tom's Cabin support or refute the following statement by citing incidents from the story: Tom has more courage and moral fortitude than his master.
There isn't too much about Tom directly in chapter 5. Mrs. Shelby is heartbroken at the thought of selling Tom,
"What! our Tom?—that good, faithful creature!—been your faithful servant from a boy! O, Mr. Shelby!—and you have promised him his freedom, too,—you and I have spoken to him a hundred times of it. Well, I can believe anything now,—I can believe now that you could sell little Harry, poor Eliza's only child!" said Mrs. Shelby, in a tone between grief and indignation."
I think however that it has already made clear that Tom is above reproach. Shelby outlined how Old Tom fetched $500 in a yonder town by himself and didn't escape even though he was counselled to.
