Lyddie is introduced to her three new roommates in chapter 8.  She has just arrived in the city after her travels which are explained in chapter 7.  Lyddie is on her way to the city, but she has no idea what to expect there.  She has no idea where she will stay or anything like that.  During chapter 7, Lyddie helps get the carriage that she is riding in unstuck.  Her grit and intelligence impresses the driver of the carriage, and he introduces Lyddie to his sister, Mrs. Bedlow.  Mrs. Bedlow owns and operates a boarding house for the factory working girls.  She takes Lyddie under her wing and helps Lyddie find a room at the boarding house and some new clothes.  

Lyddie meets her three roommates.  Their names are Amelia, Prudence, and Betsy.  It's a fairly standard first roommate encounter.  They are friendly and cordial, but are not immediately the best of friends.  That takes some time, and Betsy and Lyddie wind up being quite close by the end of the book.  It's Betsy that reads to Lyddie and teaches her the importance of education. Prudence isn't around for that much of the book.  She gets sick and ends up leaving the factory.  Amelia is a bit higher class than Lyddie and takes it upon herself to teach Lyddie a bit more social etiquette.  Amelia isn't being stuck up about it; she just wants Lyddie to learn a bit more class.
