The first night at Mr. Sowerberry’s house was terrible, Oliver ate the dog’s food and slept where they usually work.

He was alone in a strange place without anyone to call his parents or friends. The next morning he opened opened the door due to the noise coming from the outside door. He saw a big boy with small eyes and a red nose; his name was Noah who introduced himself as the manager of the place (meaning Oliver’s got to work under him and do all what he says). Noah ordered him to quickly open the windows. He was Oliver’s enemy and was jealous of him, he usually pulls his hair. They attended to many funerale and Oliver became a mourner who puts on black hat and coat or dark jacket.

When Mr. Bumble arrived to the workshop he told the woman that the cause of all was because she gives him too much meat (dog’s meat of corse). When Mr. Sowerberry came back from work that same night he flogged Oliver with a strong cane. Poor Oliver fell on his knees and cried all night; he shared too many tears for a wicked boy and the next morning he took his belongings in a handkerchief and quietly left for London.
