प्रश्न
Answer the following question:
Describe Mr. Bramble as he has been described in the story.
उत्तर
Mr. Bramble was an ‘excellent man’ and nobody ‘could help liking him’. He was a professional boxer better known as ‘Young Porky’. There was not a boxer in London whom he could not overcome in a twenty- round contest. He was famous for his left hook. But he was a very considerate, self- sacrificing and diffident character. He could sacrifice his name, fame and money as a boxer not to ‘disgrace’ Harold.
