The text indicates the following: “Um-hum! And your face is dirty. I got a great mind to wash your face for you. Ain’t you got

nobody home to tell you to wash your face?”

“No’m,” said the boy.

“Then it will get washed this evening,” said the large woman starting up the street, dragging the frightened boy behind her.

That is how Mrs. Washington dealt with the boy and the situation. The boy, after hearing the woman's voice seemed fearful for what is about to happen.
