Answer:
The protagonist of the story, Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones is the stern yet immensely generous woman whom Roger attempts to rob. Introduced as a older, “large woman with a large purse,” Mrs. Jones refuses to let Roger run off after his bungled robbery. She at first scolds him, and then—upon realizing that he likely has no family looking out for him—drags him home with her to get him cleaned up and fed. Despite her numerous last names (and implied marriages), she lives on her own in a boarding house; her comment to Roger that he “ought to be [her] son” so that she could teach him “right from wrong” quickly establishes her as a maternal figure for the young boy. Mrs. Jones treats Roger not only with kindness but also with true respect, trusting him not to run off or attempt to steal her purse again once they enter her home. This, in turn, is revealed to have a meaningful effect on the boy, who longs to become worthy of her trust. She further reveals her empathy by refusing to judge Roger’s behavior, not pressing him on his clearly troubled home life nor moralizing about his attempted crime. Instead, she insists that she, too, has “done things” she’s not proud of. At the end of the story Mrs. Jones gives Roger money before sending him on his way, a gesture of trust and goodwill that signals her faith in his ability to make better decisions for himself.
