Answers
Answer:
The policeman
Named Jimmy Wells, the beat policeman on the street on which the narrative opens, is a lifelong resident of New York City, who has had a friend from his youth named Bob that invited him to move West where they could seek their fortunes. But, Jimmy, a true city boy who cannot leave his home, declines and the two part ways with the promise that they will meet at their favorite restaurant in twenty years. Having lived all these years in New York, Patrolman Well has established himself as a respected policeman, a man of integrity and decency. In fact, he values his friendship with Bob so much that when he discovers the identity of 'Silky' Bob, an outlaw, matches that of his boyhood friend, he does not have the heart to arrest him. Instead, he sends a detective to meet Bob and apprehend him.
'Silky' Bob
Unlike his virtuous friend, Bob travels West and finds opportunity, but it is not legal opportunity. For, when he lights his cigar in the doorway of the former "Big Joe Brady's" restaurant, explaining to the patrolman that he waits for his truest friend, Jimmy Wells, with whom he has made a pact to meet these twenty years later, the policeman recognizes him from wanted posters of Chicago. For, the "little white scar near his right eyebrow" and his ostentatious diamonds in his scarfpin and watch match the description of 'Silky Bob.'
please mark me as the brainliest...
Bob or 'Silky' Bob is the protoganist in the novel 'After Twenty Years'. The story is centred around him. He is mostly described through his appearences, "The man near the door had a colorless square face with bright eyes, and a little white mark near his right eye. He had a large jewel in his necktie"
