Lizabeth's father refuses to accept Mr. Ellis's coat because he feels a deep sense of pride and dignity, believing that accepting charity would undermine his self-respect. He is determined to maintain his independence and not rely on others for help, despite their financial struggles. This decision reflects his values and the importance he places on self-sufficiency and honor in the face of adversity.
