Squire finds a boy to take Jim's place besides his mother

Explanation:

Jim is about to set sail from Bristol. The squire helps Jim's mother before they set sail by arranging for a boy who could take Jim's place. When Jim sees the boy, he treats him harshly. That's because he realizes that he'd be gone for a long period of time. The truth finally sinks in when he sees his replacement.
