Answers
Answer:
The grandfather had to go to Saharanpur to collect his pension. He decided to take Toto along in a big canvas bag. Since there was no opening in the bag to allow his hands or face to come out, he would often jump inside the bag, making the bag look like as if there was a spirit in it.
Explanation:
In the short story 'The Adventures of Toto' by Ruskin Bond, grandfather had to go to Saharanpur for the purpose of collecting his pension. He decided to take Toto along with him in a big canvas bag. He put some straw at the bottom of the bag to make it comfortable but there was no opening in the bag to allow Toto to move his hands or face outside. To avoid his discomfort, Toto jumped inside the bag which gave the appearance of a spirit or ghost inside it and attracted the attention of passengers at the Dehradun platform.
Later, when the ticket collector was checking grandfather's ticket, Toto peeped out of the bag and scared him by giving him a huge grin. This irritated and annoyed the ticket collector who started arguing with grandfather to pay the dog's full fare. Grandfather tried to convince him that it was a monkey and not a dog but it was of no use. Thus, grandfather ended up paying a sum of Rs.3 to bring Toto along with him in the train.
