She wrote to Mrs. Shelby , telling her that poor Uncle Tom was going to be sold again . She asked her to send money to buy him back , as soon as possible . The next day , Uncle Tom and the other slaves belonging to Mr. St. Clare were sent to market to be sold . As Uncle Tom stood in the market-place , waiting for some one to buy him , he looked anxiously round . In the crowd of faces , he was trying to find one kind , handsome one , like Mr. St. Clare 's . But there was none . Presently a short , broad man , with a coarse , ugly face and dirty hands , came up to Tom . He looked him all over , pulled his mouth open and looked at his teeth , pinched his arms , made him walk and jump , and indeed treated him as he would a horse or cow he had wished to buy . Tom knew from the way this man looked and spoke , that he must be bad and cruel . He prayed in his heart that this might not be his new master . But it was . His name was Legree . He bought Uncle Tom , several other men slaves , and two women . One of the women was a pretty young girl , who had never been away from her mother before , and who was very much afraid of her new master . The other was an old woman . The two women were chained together . The men , Uncle Tom among them , had heavy chains put on both hands and feet . Then Legree drove them all on to a boat which was going up the river to his plantation . It was a sad journey . This time there was no pretty Eva , nor kind-hearted Mr. St. Clare , to bring any happiness to the poor slaves .
One of the first things Legree did was to take away all Tom 's nice clothes which Mr. St. XXXXX had given him .
