Answer:
The short story "A Shot in the dark" written by Saki is about a misconception of the protagonist. He was banking on an influential lady, Saltpen Jago, who could provide him with a seat at the Parliament. By the end of the story he realised that he should have believed his fellow traveller, second son of the lady. He was under the impression that she had brown hair but at the end of story, he got to know that she had recently changed her hair to blond.
- The lesson we learnt from the short story "A Shot in the dark" is that we should not jump into conclusion without having complete knowledge about a thing or a subject.
