Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

"The Gifts of Feodor Himkoff", is a very heart touching story by Arthur Quiller. It is narrated in the first person. The narrator is a frequent visitor to a coastal area called Zoze Point. It is a difficult place to reach. He recalls of one of his visits in cold December.  

He had been walking continuously for four days and was totally worn out. He wanted a cup of warm milk to keep him alive when he chanced upon a small cottage with a fire burning. As he knocked at the door shyly he was greeted by a poorly clad old lady. The woman invited him inside and offered him a cup of tea. There was an old deaf man slouched in a chair. He was Isaac, the woman’s ailing husband.

The woman served him a very high quality tea complemented with rich dainties. When the narrator asked from where the gourmet came she narrated the story of the gifts of Feodor Himkoff.

Long ago Isaac had lost his only son. He was a soldier brutally killed by the Russians. Ever since, Isaac had vowed that he would slew every Russian he saw to avenge his son’s death. Some years later a Russian soldier with the middle finger of his hand missing, had knocked at his door in search of shelter. He and fifteen soldiers were badly injured and had been shipwrecked. Isaac cruelly refused shelter and all the Russians perished. Next day onwards Isaac went to the shore and buried the bodies that floated ashore.

A few years letter Feodor Himkoff, the brother of the soldier with the missing finger came to meet Isaac. He had come to thank him for giving his brother and his crew a peaceful burial. Ever since he had been sending the rich gifts to Isaac. As a deed of redemption Isaac and his wife did not touch the gifts but served them to all the weary travellers who sought shelter in their warm cottage. They no longer refused any one shelter.
