In session four of "Letters from the Lighthouse," Olive experiences a mix of emotions upon meeting Queenie, feeling both disappointment and shock due to Queenie's unexpected frankness. Cliff reveals his fear of heights at the attic steps. Mr. Barrowman has instructed the evacuees to pen cheerful messages home to avoid causing their families undue worry. Speculation arises that Suki might possess a coded message within her coat, potentially linked to a clandestine communication. Olive's daytime view of the village reveals its prettiness. She finds pleasure in making deliveries, as it allows her to familiarize herself with the village and appreciate the landscape. However, Olive is also gripped by a sense of dread when she hears the drone of aircraft engines, which triggers memories of the terrifying air raids back in London, particularly a harrowing experience when she had left Cliff in the shelter.

The fourth session of the reading comprehension on "Letters from the Lighthouse" encapsulates Olive's initial disappointment with Queenie, Cliff's acrophobia, and the reasoning behind Mr. Barrowman's instructions for optimistic correspondence. It delves into the mystery of Suki's potential coded message and Olive's contrasting views of the village and her enjoyment of delivery tasks against the backdrop of her lingering fears from past air raids.
