Long Answer

1. Crabbe makes independent decisions on his way out of the wilderness, some of which cause him permanent injury, as when he gets frostbite trying to travel through bad weather. He might actually have died if not for the lucky encounter with the Good Samaritan who picked him up on the road.  (Journals 19-21)

2. Mary embodies independent thinking, autonomy, and integrity. Her character contrasts sharply with the way Crabbe views his parents and peers, who seem to him to mindlessly conform to societal expectations and often fail to match their actions to their words. (Various entries)
