Answer:

Concept:

William Saroyan's short fiction Locomotive 38, the Ojibway It's about an American youngster named Aram who befriends a native American who visits his little town and requests for his assistance in purchasing a car and driving him about. He claims he can't drive. During the summer, the adolescent serves as the man's chauffeur, and the two form a bond. Locomotive 38 appears to be the man's name in his native tongue. When Aram inquires about town at the conclusion of the summer, he discovers that Locomotive has vanished in his automobile.

Given:

Why was the indian in the locomotive story assumed to be insane?

Find:

Why did people assume the indian in the locomotive story was insane?

Answer:

Uncle Melik goes on a railroad trip in "Old Country Advise to the American Traveler," and utterly disregards all of his Uncle Garro's advice, having a nice time. In "The Poor and Burning Arab," "crazy" Uncle Khosrove befriends an Arab who misses his family and homeland and invites him to supper.

The point of this story is that you should never judge a book by its cover (courtesy of cj arches). Do you understand why? People assume the locomotive is insane because he appears to be destitute, but if you read the story, he is wealthy and owns lands and oil. He was an Ojibway Indian, a towering young man. Everyone in town thought he had fled from an asylum when he informed me his name was Locomotive.
