$\huge{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{\mathfrak{Answer-}}}}}}$

The ending of the story takes the reader by surprise. The handsome young man turns out to be a criminal and the roughly dressed man, the Marshal. This happens because the rough man has a heart of gold and wants to save the lady from a heartbreak; so he pretends to be the prisoner.

When the lady is about to get down, the actual Marshal takes Easton for a smoke. One passenger who has heard the conversation tells the other that the Marshal is a good person. The other remarks he looks too young to be in that position. Then the first speaker asks him in surprise whether he has ever seen an officer handcuff a prisoner to his right hand.

Thus, The reader comes to know that Easton is the prisoner in the rough, heavily built, glum- faced man is the Marshal.
