Back in Raveloe, Marner tells Dolly that he will never get at the truth about the robbery and the drawing of the lots that found him guilty. Dolly says that though he will never know the "rights" of what befell him at Lantern Yard, there still may be a right explanation. Marner agrees that though he will never know the truth, he has been given enough hope through his relationship with Eppie to accept his ignorance about the fate of Lantern Yard.
