Where does the chance encounter between easton and Miss Fairchild take place and how do they react to each other
Answers
Answer:
In the Hearts and Hands, the encounter happened when Miss Fairchild recognized the younger man as someone who used to run in the same social circles, Mr. Easton. Miss Fairchild implied that she used to have romantic feelings or attraction to Mr. Easton. There is a hint that Mr. Easton felt uncomfortable and embarrassed that she has recognized him and started talking to him. He doesn't want Miss Fairchild to see how far down in the world he's fallen. When she previously knew him back East, Mr. Easton was a member of the social elite. But now, he's nothing more than a common criminal on his way to the penitentiary. Being incarcerated is not something that usually happens to people of Mr. Easton's social class.
The chance encounter between Easton and Miss Fairchild took place at Denver, in one of the coach of B and M express. As Mr Easton and the glum-faced man seated themselves in front of attractive young woman( Miss Fairchild). As she recognised Mr Easton,she started the conversation but Mr Easton felt embarrassed because he was handcuffed with a glum faced man. He don't want that his old friend(Miss Fairchild) should know that he is a criminal now. The glum-faced man handed the situation well by saying that he is a prisoner and Mr Easton is a Marshal.
