describe the idea that struck Albert Edward. what does it lead him to?a
Answers
Answer:
Albert Edward Foreman is a successful man and a verger at a church although he is illiterate. He knows how to make proper use of his knowledge. The newly appointed vicar of the church is astonished that Foreman is illiterate. When he refuses to read, the vicar is forced to terminate him.
When he talks about this to his daughter, he notices that there is no tobacconist shop at all. He talks to his landlord Emma about this. In due course he opens many shops and marries Emma. Foreman began depositing his amount in a bank. The manager suggests that he make an investment following which Albert Foreman expresses his inability to do so because he is illiterate. Shocked, the manager asked him if he knew where he would be if he were literate, Foreman immediately says that he would have been a verger in a church.
