When Lyddie arrives at the tavern, she stands outside for a minute, thinking. "Once I walk in that gate, I ain't free anymore....No matter how handsome the house, once I enter I'm a servant girl" (18). To what extent is Lyddie's prediction correct?
If she was taken or hired to work there for a rich man then she would be indeed a servant girl, as some servant girls in the past walks through the gate of the man that hire them they aren't allowed to leave
