Answers
Explanation:
The ironmaster is impulsive* whereashis daughter is cool, logical, kind andthoughtful. In uncertain light he (iron master) mistakes the stranger as hisold regiment comrade. He invites him home and takes care of his feeding, clothing etc
Answer:
Edla and her father had different natures. She had more convincing power than the father and was able to persuade the peddler to accept the invitation. We also find that the ironmaster’s hospitability was limited to his old comrade. But, the daughter was pained by the plight of the peddler and continued to treat him well even after the truth about his identity was revealed. Again, after finding about the robbery of the crofter’s money, while the ironmaster was more concerned with the possibility of the peddler robbing them as well, the daughter is more pained by the betrayal of her trust. We also find that while the father was impulsive and reckless in nature, the daughter’s behaviour was more mature and controlled.
