Question

In spite of being a successful businessman why did Horace Danby steal in order to get the books?(A Question of Trust)

Answer 1

Answer:

Horace Danby was a good and respected man. He was fifty years old and unmarried. He was well and happy. Only sometimes, he would have attacks of hay fever in the summer. He made locks and was quite successful in his business, but Horace Danby was not honest. He robbed a safe every year. He lost enough to last for 12 months. But he didn't steal for bread and butter. He loved rare and expensive books. The money he got from robbing a safe once a year was spent on buying books. He secretly bought the books through an agent.
