प्रश्न
Why do you think Lutkins’ neighbours were anxious to meet the lawyer?
उत्तर
Lutkins took the lawyer all across New Mullion in search of Lutkins himself. He successfully fooled the lawyer—an educated man of the city. During this process of deception, almost all the people in the town got to see the lawyer. This episode would have become the talking point of the town. According to Lutkins, his neighbours were the only people in town who had missed seeing the lawyer and hence, wanted to meet the lawyer.
