describe how Mrs.packletide's big-game shooting ended?
Answers
Answer:
Mrs. Packletide's motive behind hunting a tiger was to outshine Loona Bimberton. She was happy to have killed the tiger but discovery of Miss Mebbin that the tiger died of heart failure, disturbed her.
Miss Mebbin blackmailed her for keeping her secret intact. Mrs. Packletide had no option other than paying for week-end cottage. The 'incidental expenses' were too heavy and hence, she gave up hunting.
Mrs Packletide gave up the big-game hunting as she observed it to be an event where ‘incidental costs’ were extensive. She had to spend a big amount of money in the tiger-killing also as Miss Mebbin forced her into spending for a weekend bungalow. Apart from this, she had to give money to the villagers who helped her in the hunting tiger.
Answer: Mrs. Packeltide's big-game shooting ended due to several reasons.
- She is vain as she is only concerned with the jealousy towards Loona Bimberton who was also a hunter.
- She goes to such an extent as to kill a tiger, put goats as bait for it, spend money, hires a companion, and is not bothered about the losses she is suffering in order to put all this together.
- But the heaviest incidental expenses she faced when she was going to shoot the fragile tiger but instead shot the goat who was put up as bait and the tiger died due to heart failure due to the voice of the gunshot.
- The villagers who were also paid for this hunting were happy, celebrating the victory. But Lousia Mebbin, the paid companion of Mrs. Packletide. She has an elder sisterly attitude towards money. When she noticed that it is the goat and not the tiger that has been killed by Mrs. Packletide’s gunshot, she blackmails her into buying a weekend cottage at Darking otherwise she suggests informing Loona Bimberton about it and humiliating her.
That's how Mrs. Packeltide's big-game shooting ended.
