Explanation:
Ruskin Bond’s stories are full of ghost, witches, monsters, etc. which are as lively as the human beings. That’s why his works are popular among adults as well as children; the stories are intended to create an eerie. It is one of the Bond’s famous stories. It is supernatural and too short but complete in itself. There are only three characters which include Mr. Oliver, an Anglo-Indian teacher, a boy and a watchman. But the main character is Mr. Oliver who is a bold and brave man but he is also caught by the fancy and imagines the cap lying on the rock as the faceless boy.
Then he again imagines a watchman without face like the boy. There is an element of fear, suspense, horror, thrill, mystery and surprise which is used skillfully by Bond. It displays the picturesque image of the hills at the evening which removes the loneliness of a person. The story ends with suspense to what might have happened to Mr. Oliver and leaves the reader in confusion.
