Mark Twain most likely created the character of Henry Adams as an American living in England to better compare and contrast American and British social tendencies.

Twain uses the stories of Henry Adams to show that <em>Americans need to be honest, patient, self-disciplined, and witty</em>. This story is no exception. Henry needs to be intelligent to obtain things just for having a milloin pound bank note, and he need self-discipline to not over spend the money that people lend him so that he can ultimately repay it.

The answer is<em> in order to better compare and contrast American and British banking system.</em>

The story takes place in Victorian London, where Henry Adams, the story's main character and also the hero-storyteller has wound up poor and in clothes after a drifting mishap in the U.S cleared him out to to ocean. Shortly after, two extremely rich siblings spot him and give him an envelope with no data. Seeing the cash inside the envelope Henry promptly sets out toward a shabby eating house and he hauls the cash out of the envelope after he eats.

<u>Throughout the story the author uses the main character's nationality and the mishaps he encounters in the UK to make a clear statement towards the banking industry in both countries.</u>


Hope this helps!!

Which journal would you record Credit note​
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

  • Sales Journal = For seller
  • Purchases Journal = For buyer

Explanation:

A credit note is issued by a supplier to a purchaser when the purchaser returns goods back to the supplier. The note is essentially an acknowledgment that goods have been returned to the seller.

The seller would therefore record this in the Sales Journal to show that the sales has been reduced by the goods that were returned to them with the relevant entry being a debit.

The buyer would also record this in their purchases journal to show that their purchases have decreased and the relevant entry will be a credit.
