describe the situation where baldeu was a signalman
Answers
Baldeo heads to the tunnel, and while walking in the dark, thinks about the various animals he might encounter along the way. The villagers all tell stories of an infamous tiger known as a “man-eater.” The tiger has supposedly been seen quite often in the area, especially around the tunnel. Baldeo, however, has never seen or even heard the tiger while on his trips to check on the signal lamp. Even if he did, Baldeo feels certain that he can handle himself. Not only is he familiar with the jungle, he carries a weapon. It is a small axe that Baldeo knows how to use both deftly and expertly. It was given to Baldeo by his father, and he sees it as an extension of his own person.
When he arrives at the tunnel, Baldeo finds that the signal light is indeed out, and sets about relighting it. He then walks down the length of the tunnel to ensure that there are no obstructions in the way. The train is late on this night, but Baldeo soon feels the trembling of the ground, signaling the overland mail train’s approach. Tembu is still awake back at the hut, and soon feels the trembling of the ground as well, so waits for his father to return as his work should be done.
