Wolfie

Wolfie is a "cut purse"  or "street rat" with tongue tie who along with gang of other boys attempted to rob   Adam Windjammer. Wolfie is described by the author as a "hungry-looking youth."

First attempt to rob Adam
While on his way to Meister Bloem Adam runs in to Wolfie and his gang. Adam managed to defend himself from Wolfie by t  hrowing his weight forward at Wolfie taking him by surprise and then making a run for it.

However while Wolfie and his gang are chasing Adam they run into a pig cart and accidentley over turned it striking a response from the furious cart owner who started attacking the gang wielding a pigs head like a club. Adam laughed then waved at wolfie and ran on. "I'll g-get you for this, Windjammer" shouted Wolfie. "You have my oath on it"

Second attempt to rob Adam
Later in the story Adam encounters Wolfie and his gang again, this time Wolfie tries to steal the Windjammer family ring. Wolfie's took Adam by surprise, pining his arms by his sides and throwing him in a alley.

Wolfie tried make fun of Adam saying that he had heard that all Windjammers are pigs and maybe that was why Adam liked to crawl in the dung of the alley so much. Adam repplied delibritley stuttering, that Wolfie knew all about dung. Wolfie's smile faded and picking adam up by the collar he demanded that Adam pay him.

While talking to Adam, Wolfie notices the chain around his neck and on further inspection discovers the golden Windjammer family ring. Wolfie breaks the chain with ease and siezes the ring. Adam attempts to stop Wolfie but he is older and stronger than Adam and fends him off vwith ease. Jade van Helsen witnessing the affair steps in and commands Wolfie to leave Adam alone.

At first Wolfie is not worried about Jade but then she threatens that she knows the preacher, Abner Heems. Wolfie not wanting to cause trouble apologises the best he can and releases Adam. Jade makes one final warning and she and Adam run off
