Mac is one of the gang of bullies who picks on Kip and incites Francis to help them rob the old woman. Although Mac is a gangster as a teenager, when he returns from war he seems entirely changed, and even defends Kip’s honor as a soldier against his own sister Jos. Mac’s character change suggests that his time as a soldier caused him to mature and grow, suggesting that even the worst individuals can experience personal development and become good people.
