What sort of a person was the postmaster? Which values of the postmaster are depicted in his behavior? |
|
Answer» The postmaster was a fat amiable fellow. He broke out laughing upon seeing the envelope addressed to God. But, immediately calmed down and admired the writer’s firm faith in God. As he was a sympathetic person, he decided to write to Lencho in order to retain his faith in God.When he got to know that the writer needed monetary help and not just goodwill, he decided to help him. He gave a part of his salary and also collected money from his employees and friends. From this behavior it can be understood that he was generous, sympathetic, kind and a softhearted person. He had an option of ignoring the letter and putting it in the bin, but he did not do so. He had decided to answer the letter upon receiving the envelope. After realizing that the writer needed money, he did not change his stance. He decided to keep his promise and also give money to the writer. This shows that the postmaster also possessed the value of integrity. |
