Question 2.Give a character-sketch of the Governor of Oxford Prison based on your understanding of the story, ‘Evans Tries an O-level’. The Governor of HM Prison, Oxford, despite being an extra cautious man, is actually quite gullible and he, quite unfortunately, overestimates himself. His judgement of people is rather poor. Due to his average intelligence he j is not able to comprehend and understand Evans’ shrewdness. He ignores vital matters that require his personal attention. Searching McLeery and escorting the wounded Mcleery needed his personal supervision but he neglected these. He became rather casual at the critical times and fails to grasp the complexity of the situaiton. However, he does reveal a mark of intelligence when he locates the hotel where Evans is hiding on the basis of the correction slip. But then again he ignores the vital issues and finally is unable to capture Evans.
