Final answer:
The landlord, whom the student refers to as Mr. Worthington, had the police remove Bartleby to the Tombs as a vagrant, an action that the story's narrator struggles with but ultimately finds justifiable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Worthington, in this context, seems to be the landlord character, and given the details provided, he did not directly involve himself with Blotter, rather the situation relates to Bartleby. After Bartleby, a scrivener, was moved out of the office by the story's narrator, the landlord found him to be a vagrant and sent a note expressing that he had contacted the police to have Bartleby removed to the Tombs (a nickname for a jail in New York). The landlord deemed this action necessary as Bartleby was causing a disturbance in the building and affecting business. The narrator experiences mixed feelings but ultimately feels that the landlord's direct intervention might have been the only solution in such a peculiar situation.
