Against the law, Johnny was working on the Sabbath, or Sunday. He was making a silver sugar basin for John Hancock because Mrs. Lapham wanted to deliver it on time for a change. Johnny asked Dusty for a ladle, and handed him the one with a crack in it. As it was dipped in boiling silver, it spilled onto the mantle, and Johnny slipped and his hand, trying to grab a hold of something, fell onto the mantle with burning liquid silver. He recovered in the Lapham's birth and death room and cared for by a midwife. When his hand was unwrapped, they found that his thumb was connected to his palm, so he couldn't work as a silversmith apprentice anymore.

How does the accident happen to Johnny Tremain?
Actually, the previous answer is false. We are studying the book Johnny Tremain in both my Great American History and Reading classes. Johnny was breaking the religious law and was working on Sabbath. Dove wanted to pay him back for all the rude things he did like having to work on Sabbath. So he gave him a cracked crucible and thought he would just spill it and look like a fool. Instead Johnny fell when trying to clean up the mess of silver off of the furnace and his hand landed right into the burning silver.crucible: container used for burning/melting/preparing substances (like silver)
