Preparation for England
- Gandhi graduates in 1887. A family friend advises that he should be sent to England so he may study to become a lawyer and come back with a chance of becoming an official like his father.
- He visits people for advice and help regarding the trip. His mother worries if he goes to England, he'll be influenced to begin eating meat and drinking liquor.
- Gandhi promises his mother he won't do those things, and a monk has him vow not to touch wine, woman, or meat. Now, he may journey to Bombay en route to England.
