Question

Wired Faculty App

Will the examination now go as scheduled?

Solution

The examination was scheduled to start at 9.15 a.m and elaborate arrangements were made accordingly. It is now 9.18 a.m. and it is clear that the examination has not started so far. McLeery reads out the instructions. It is 9.20 a.m. He tells Evans to write the name of the paper 021-1 in the top left hand comer and index number 313 and centre number 271. Evans objects the presence of Stephens since he would not be able to concentrate in his presence. The Governor orders to go outside. It is now 9.25 and the examination starts. It will go smoothly.

Where did Evans go?

Reflecting on the story, what did you feel about Evans having the last laugh?

When Stephens comes back to the cell he jumps to a conclusion and the whole machinery blindly goes by his assumption without even checking the identity of the injured “McLeery.” Does this show how hasty conjectures prevent one from seeing the obvious? How is the criminal able to predict such negligence?

What could the Governor have done to securely bring back Evans to prison when he caught him at The Golden Lion? Does that final act of foolishness really prove that ‘he was just another good-for-a-giggle, gullible Governor, that was all’?

While we condemn the crime, we are sympathetic to the criminal. Is this the reason why prison staff often develop a soft corner for those in custody?

Do you agree that between crime and punishment, it is mainly a battle of wits?
