George is worried that the Hallidays are putting themselves at risk by helping him and his family. How does Simeon put George’s mind at ease?

Simeon puts George's mind at ease by saying, "Fear nothing, George, for therefore are we sent into the world. If we would not meet trouble for a good cause, we were not worthy of our name."

"But, for me," said George, "I could not bear it."

"Fear not, then, friend George; it is not for thee, but for God and man, we do it," said Simeon.
