- #4Why did Mr Thompson avoid the chamber where Maggie was kept when he returned back home? OR
Why did Mr Thompson felt it better to leave Mrs Thompson alone with the child in the chamber?Ans : Mr Thompson was not sure whether his wife's temperament would be normal by evening or not. The first thing that caught his attention after reaching home was the light shining through the little chamber. He paused to look in and was satisfied to see the view. His wife was sitting by the bed in the chamber where Maggie lay and was talking to her. But entering the house, he did not go immediately to the little chamber. His heavy footsteps were heard by his wife who hurriedly came out of the chamber where she was with Maggie. Joe thought it best, not to discuss the child or show any concern for the child.
