Mattie makes supper and retrieves from a high shelf Zeena's treasured pickle dish, which Zeena, in a symbol of her stingy nature, never uses, in order to protect it.

Ethan tries to help by setting the dish's pieces neatly in the cupboard, presenting the false impression of wholeness if not examined closely, with plans to purchase some glue and fix it as soon as he can. In the morning Ethan's hopes for more private time with Mattie are foiled by the presence of his hired man.

At one point during World War II the facility was producing over 40% of the U.S. Navy's munitions. It manufactured 40 mm shells, 16-inch projectiles, rockets, bombs, depth charges, mines, and torpedoes. Production peaked in June–July 1945, when the depot employed 125 officers, 1,800 enlisted men, and 6,692 civilians. The impact on the city of Hastings was a 40% population increase from just over 15,000 in 1940 to 22,252 at its peak during the war. By 1944, workers' base wages at the depot were 74 cents an hour with time-and-a-half for overtime beyond 54- to 64-hour workweeks, considerably higher than the 40- to 50-cents per hour in town and maybe a dollar a day for a hired man on the farm.

A Message from Charles Van Riper. Minnesota State University (May 8, 2007). Retrieved 2009-08-29. Charles wrote in a letter to a newsletter that he had lived a "very successful and happy life", a result of an idea that came to him while hitch-hiking his way home from Rhinelander, Wisconsin, where he had spent a month as the hired man on a farm, pretending to be a deaf mute because his stuttering was so severe that he could not get any other employment: he met an old stutterer who said that he was "too old and tired to fight myself now so I just let the words leak out"; Charles realised that he should have been seeking a way of stuttering that would be tolerable both to others and himself, instead of avoiding and hiding his stutter.
How the money was to be collected to support a force of paid constables, and by whom, were crucial issues. The 1663 act left it to the ward beadle or a constable and it seems to have been increasingly the case that rather than individuals paying directly for a substitute, when their turn came to serve, the eligible householders were asked to contribute to a watch fund that supported hired man. From the mid-1690s the city authorities made several attempts to replace Robinson's Act and establish the watch on a new footing. Though they did not say it directly, the overwhelming requirement was to get quotas adjusted to reflect the reality that the watch consisted of hired men rather than citizens doing their civic duty—the assumption upon which the 1663 act, and all previous acts, had been based.
Both are surprised by the soaking wet stranger: clumsy "Applecore" drops the tray of cookies she was preparing, while Aunt Harriet sends for the family's hired man, Ben Harrow, and has him carry the stranger to Uncle Ned's unoccupied bedroom, and sends for a physician to attend the young man in a house call. The party goes on as planned, with five boys and five girls invited to the party. The girls' local friend Sarah Gray expresses her wish to go to Starhurst too, when her brother, star Oak Hill High School halfback Sam Gray, cuts in and attempts to begin a debate on the merits of public coeducational high schools like his own, versus private all-girl schools like Starhurst, when all are interrupted by a loud noise upstairs. This proves to be caused by Uncle Ned wrestling with the nearly-drowned stranger.
She recovers and sells the business. ;Thelma Baird (née Clifford): (1904 - May 1988), a kindly old woman and the Patterson family's neighbour. Born in the Yorkshire Dales, England to a farming family with a tradition of breeding old English sheepdogs, Thelma had expected to live in the Dales all her life until she met William Baird when she was 20. A hired man on the family farm, William's ambitions to rise above his traditional roots and work with machines took the newly wed couple to southern Ontario, where William became a dealer in farm machinery, with Thelma as his business partner. Their business survived the Depression years and boomed during the Second World War; by 1946, the Bairds had five dealerships and 25 employees. Sadly for Thelma, who always wanted children, the couple's business responsibilities never allowed them either the time or the money to raise a family before William's death from incurable cancer in the early 1950s.
