Answer: He tells the ending of the story first, and then explains how it happened so that the reader knows the emotions colonel Owens feels after their escape.

Explanation: Charles Chesnutt gives a general idea of how the characters end up at the beginning of the story so that the reader is aware of where is everything leading up to. He then tells the journey of the Colonel's son and the slave he saved; Grandison, since he looked trustworthy to the Colonel.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Once there was a very valorous king. His aim was to protect his people, to expand his state boundaries and acquire more wealth by defeating neighboring countries. He spent many sleepless nights in order to execute his plan.

But after some years at a very young age he started developing health issues. He contacted many doctors. But in vain.

One day he met his Spiritual teacher and asked him to show the path of peaceful life. His spiritual teacher advised him to visit a farmer in a small village.

The king went to farmer and stayed at his place. Soon he learned that farmer though not having much wealth was leading a happy and peaceful life with his family.

The king again went to his teacher and asked him about this. His teacher with a smile on his face stated," the difference between both of you is that your family is your whole state and the farmer's family is only his wife and children. He has to take care of only three to four people whereas your task is to take care of a large number of people. More responsibility, more uneasiness of mind."
