Chapter please?

Chapter 9

Mr. Jamison comes to tell Papa that Wallace is planning to put a stop to the shopping in Vicksburg. From the text, we can infer that his actions will not be peaceful.

Papa looked down at her, ‘Nothing to worry 'bout, honey... Just seems that Thurston Wallace been in town talking 'bout how he's not gonna let a few smart colored folks ruin his business. Says he's gonna put a stop to this shopping in Vicksburg. That's all.
