How do Matilda and her grandfather end up stranded?
60
The men on horseback think Matilda's grandfather has yellow fever, so they refuse to let him in the town. The farmer's family dumps them on the road and goes without them.
The wagon they are traveling in has a broken axle, and no one has the money to make the repair.
The roads are all closed to reduce the spread of fever. The family they are traveling with decides to head back while Matilda and her grandfather decide to find another way.
