Question

Why do you think the countryman discouraged the narrator from going to the house?

Answer 1

The countrymen discouraged the narrator from going to the house, as they thought that there was something scary in the house.

• The question has been asked from the story Three at a table.
• While traveling, the narrator had lost his way due to several turns. On the way the countrymen told him to avoid going into the house.
• Although the countrymen told him not to go into the house, the narrator still went as it was very foggy and because he was cold and tired.
