Shawshank Redemption page 68-80

In these 10 pages Andy Dufresne is getting tired of the jail, and he is missing being in the free world. He thinks that Norton made a deal with someone in order to move Tommy Williams from Shawshank to Cashman jail. Tommy was a very important aspect to helping Andy win his trial and be proven innocent but now that he is gone Andy feels helpless. A reason Norton could have done this is because he needs any to take care of all his secretive banking business that goes on in the library. Now that Norton thinks he has Andy in his power he is ordering him around forcing him to do dirty work and if Andy doesn't follow Norton's request, then his life at Shawshank will be more miserable then it already is. Later on Andy talks to Red about what he wants to do with his life and where he wants to go when he gets out of prison. He tells red about how his money is still safe with an unknown man names Peter Stevens. Stevens set up a false identity in order to keep his money safe and not condemned when he entered prison. Andy can not get his money from Stevens while he is in prison and because his friend who had been helping him had died 6 years ago, he has no way of reclaiming all of his money and if he tried on his own he would loose all of it. Andy needs his money in order to hire a good enough lawyer and privet investigator to build a strong case on proving his innocence. At the end of the 10 pages Andy had made a proposal to Red about him coming with Andy when he gets out of prison to go to mexico and live in the fabulous hotel Andy plans on buying.
