Cry, the Beloved Country Chapter 33

By Alan Paton

Chapter 33

Arthur's son comes to visit Kumalo again, and Kumalo gives the boy a Zulu lesson.
Arthur's son also tries to practice with Kumalo's wife, but she is frightened of him and leaves.
Later, Jarvis comes back with a new person, who introduces himself as an "agricultural demonstrator" (3.33.44). Apparently, Jarvis has brought him to Ndotsheni to teach farming to the local people.
This man, Mr. Letsitsi, will stay with Kumalo, and he's got a lot of big ideas for how the people of Ndotsheni can make their farms more environmentally sustainable.
Finally, something goes right for our man Kumalo.
