However, as he gets to know the teetotalers and learns more about the negative effects of alcohol on individuals and society, he begins to reconsider his own habits.As the story progresses, Wilfred becomes increasingly involved in the teetotalism movement and starts to work alongside the preacher and his followers to spread their message throughout the village.
