Answer:
The
author creates humour in the story through various situations and mainly with
the use of language which brings out the humorous situations more clearly.
The tone is satirical, which makes the whole story very entertaining. The
whole scene of the hunting ground and the exchange of dialogues between Miss
Mebbin and Mrs Packtetide are the most humorous and bring out the situations
very well.
We are amused how the villagers manipulate the situation
to their advantage. Then the killing of the goat by the bullet and the death of
the tiger by heart-failure caused by the noise of rifle-bullet are quite
amusing incidents.
Miss Mebbin's protective 'elder-sister attitude' towards money,
her 'morbid dread of performing, even a bit more than she was paid for' add pleasant
pungency to the humour.
At the end, we are also left with a message to understand which
has also been done in a humorous way.
