It is true money makes man go. The moment the villagers came to know about the lucrative offer of a thousand rupees for helping Mrs Packletide in her tiger hunt, they were more than ready to seize the opportunity. Fortunately an old tiger had shifted its hunting grounds quite near the village because of old age and decrepitude. So in order to earn the money the villagers took the following precautions:

a) children were posted night and day on the outskirts of the local jungle to head the tiger back in the unlikely event of his attempting to roam away to fresh hunting-grounds.

b) cheaper kinds of goats were left about with elaborate carelessness to keep him satisfied with his present quarters.

c) Mothers carrying their babies home through the jungle after the day's work in the fields hushed their singing lest they might curtail the restful sleep of the venerable tiger.

d) They also provided other help such as putting up a platform on the tree from where Mrs. Packletide and her paid companion could shoot the tiger.

The villagers helped her to set the platform. They helped to confine the tiger within the village. Packletide wanted to kill a tiger because she was envious of her neighbour Loona Bimberton, who had recently been carried 11 miles in an aeroplane by an Algerian aviator. She wanted to outshine her.
