Answer:

The Governor in the story is a man who is proud of himself. He does not take silly and non sense things into consideration, he has a being straight forward attitude. When James breaks out of prison he gets sent to the Oxford prison where the governor sees to it that he doesn't break out again. The Governor is a determined man which is why he personally takes matter into his own hands by keeping a close eye on James's actions. But the one place where is lacked was communication. He didn't see to it closely enough and didn't have any contact with James which is why the subordinates Jackson and Stephen end up losing him.

Answer :-

The Governor of the HM Prison, Oxford, appears to be a kind-hearted and generous human being. He arranges for an O-level exam for a prisoner, who is renowned for his ability to escape. He was, though, quite skeptical of Evans and took every necessary precaution to make sure that Evans had no means to escape. He was just and a fair person. He complied with Evans' requests despite his misgivings. He was also very proud and self-conscious. He did not want Evans to disgrace him by escaping from his prison. He had a sharp presence of mind, which was clear from the fact that he cross-checked every call that was made to the prison that day. However, he got over-confident of his arrangements and somehow underestimated Evans. He was quite intelligent. he could trace Evans back again at Golden Lion hotel but he believed in others easily which gave Evans a chance to escape to escape in front of him. Also, he was a person who does not mind showering praise on a prisoner. When Evans revealed his secret plan to him, he admired him. He was a simple man and didn't realize the extent of deception, However, at last, he proved to be just another gullible Governor when Evans tricked him again and successfully escaped. His overconfidence and self-praise let him down.
