The paragraph of the excerpt in which the tension surrounding Mrs. Wessington's presence begin is in the third paragraph. (Option A). This question is about "The Phantom Rickshaw"

<h3 /><h3>What is the theme of The Phantom Rickshaw?</h3>

The theme of the above story is one that speaks to Betrayal.

The narrator, Jack, had an affair with Mrs. Agnes Keith-Wessington at Simla, but later dumped her and got engaged to Miss Kitty Mannering.

Mrs. Wessington, however, keeps popping up in Jack's life, pleading with him to change his mind and saying that everything was an error.

But Jack continues to shun her and doesn't want anything to do with her. Mrs. Wessington eventually passes away, much to Jack's relief.

But later on, he notices her old rickshaw and believes it has been purchased.

The rickshaw and the men hauling it suddenly pass through a horse, shocking him by exposing themselves to be ghosts carrying Mrs. Wessington's deceased spirit.

This causes Jack to become more unpredictable, which he attempts to hide by making up increasingly complex stories to allay Kitty's concerns.

Of the two central characters, the adjutant and Timothy Lean, which man appears to be more "calm and collected?" Defend your ans

lutik1710 [3]

I think Timothy Lean appears more "calm and collected" than the adjutant. Though he did not like doing things he had to do, he performed them well. He searched the corpse to look for his things. He lifted the body, with the help of the adjutant, and laid it on the grave. He said a little prayer over the grave. He continued covering the grave with dirt after the private got shot. He covered the upturned face with earth to completely bury the dead.
