“Horace Danby was good and respectable — but not completely honest”. Why do you think this description is apt for Horace? Why can’t he be categorised as a typical thief?

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\sf{\pink{Answer:-}}}}}$

Horace was a robber who would steal once in a year to buy rare and expensive books. He wasn’t a regular thief who robbed to meet ends meet. He made locks and had two helpers who helped him in his successful business. Nonetheless, a crime however small or big it may be, no matter how it is done calls for punishment. Therefore, an act of theft is also a crime, no matter how well-behaved a thief is, he is bound to face punishment. Horace was one of this kind and he couldn’t be categorized a typical thief or a regular offender like other thieves who robbed to feed themselves or their families. Horace’s motive behind a yearly robbery was merely to steal a big safe with proper planning that would last him for twelve months so that he could secretly buy the books he loved through an agent.
