What events make it possible for Lyddie to visit the cabin?

Answer :

Lyddie has been working hard at Cutler's tavern, and I mean really hard. Mrs. Cutler is a serious task master, and Lyddie can barely catch a moment to herself. Fortunately, Lyddie is a hard worker, and that earns her the respect and friendship of Triphena. That's helpful to Lyddie in Chapter Five, because in this chapter Mrs. Cutler decided to go to Boston to sell the maple sugar and visit some family. Because of the reduced workload (Mrs. Cutler isn't there anymore), Triphena encourages Lyddie to go visit her family as well.

Explanation:

A fortnight passed and it was now the second week of April. Lyddie couldn't believe that two weeks had already passed. Mistress Cutler decided she had made enough molded sugar that she was going to take it to Boston to sell. When the mistress left, Triphena helped convince Lyddie that she should go home for a little vacation and to check on her cabin even though they were told they weren't supposed to leave.

Lyddie left the next morning. She stopped at Baker's Mill on her way to visit Charlie. However, Mrs. Baker alluded to the fact that Charlie was not there because he was at school. Lyddie knew Mrs. Baker had not said he was at school outright because she knew Lyddie would be jealous. Lyddie was jealous that her brother was able to go to school. Lyddie was worried she might embarass him by staying and waiting for him. So, even though the Baker's offered her a chance to stay for dinner and wait, Lyddie decided to keep walking towards their cabin.

Finally, Lyddie made it home to her cabin. But, as she entered the cabin she saw a dark, shadowy figure standing in the dim light. Lyddie saw in the dim light that his face and hands were very dark. Only his eyes shone. She realized quickly she was staring at a black man!

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
