1 Answer

  1. The story highlights the major factor of loyalty,trust and friendship that even in such a busy and strict duty, Jimmy, did not fail to make his promise, which he made twenty years ago to his friend,Bob.

    Loyalty shown by Bob is also undeniably appreciable because he travelled across the country, over a thousand miles, just to see his friend, Jimmy once again. If he would have not come, then he would have remained safe in his place.

    Whatever uncertainties, Bob had to face, for being a criminal, was primarily his own choice and Jimmy could not do anything about it. Jimmy, was successful in performing both his duties- as a friend ,he kept his promise and as a constable, he arrested the wanted criminal.
