Answer:
Fahrquhar's fantasy and imaginative narration implies that he may not be trusted as a reliable witness.
Explanation:
'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge' is a short story written by Ambrose Bierce. The story is about a man named Peyton Fahrquhar, who is hanged in the story and also narrates the events that caused this hanging.
Peyton Fahrquhar is a middle-aged man of about thirty-five years of age. He desires to be a part of Confederate Army and support the cause of Southerners. In Part III, after Fahquhar was hanged, he fanstasize himself to be free from ropes on his hands and neck and marvelously escaped from Federal's hanging. By the difference between the Third-person narrator's description and Fahrquhar's witness of his escape dictates that Fahrquhar was fantasizing his escape but in reality he is dead.
<em>'Doubtless, despite his suffering, he had fallen asleep while walking, for now he sees another scene—</em><u><em>perhaps he has merely recovered from a delirium</em></u><em>. He stands at the gate of his own home. All is as he left it, and all bright and beautiful in the morning sunshine. He must have traveled the entire night.'</em>
The last statement of the story also verifies that Fahrquhar's witnessing is unreliable:
<em>'Peyton Fahrquhar was dead; his body, with a broken neck, swung gently from side to side beneath the timbers of the Owl Creek bridge.'</em>
When Fahrquhar was imagining his escape, he was hung on the Owl Creek Bridge.

Subject: A constructive observation of the inefficiency of the school and remedial measures.
Dear Sir,
With due respect, the undersigned would like to put forth some of my observations and opinions to your esteemed office under your kind consideration.
Transportation
Uniforms
Fees
Teacher
As a student who has spent almost a decade in this school, I am indebted to the college for what I've become and owns a big share of responsibility especially in moments like this when the administration and whole functioning of the school are quickly degrading.
Firstly addressing the issue of transportation, our school is at least 4Km away from the students' residences. In this era we can expect no parents making their children walk such distance on foot. And there are no proper means that could be availed for their daily schooling. To this I suggest the administration under your leadership, work towards extending the hostels and building new hostels, making it a totally residential one. If not purchase a bus for the school. The bust can be plied with monthly fees and the investment of 15 lakhs can hopefully be recovered in 10 years making it a win-win investment for both the school and the students. In this way the number of students decreased in the last few years can be retained. (And go on addressing the other issues respectfully, with genuine concern. What is needed in this type of letter is not criticism. Anybody can criticize but takes lots of Education and years of experience to give a useful tip. Don't address the problems as a stranger, who are you to interfere? Such a question can divert real intention. Be someone willing to share the failure and even more responsible in claiming a share towards a solution. Writing with such a clear perspective will avoid any kind of misunderstanding and this can be settled for good).
Looking forward to working together in any capacities for the welfare of the school. Thank you for considering my opinions, in anticipation.
Sincerely Yours,
Name———
