Moral Value of B. 24
Moral Values of B. 24
by : Arthur Conan Doyle
1. Don't do criminal things.
2. Don't kill someone just fot the sake of wealth.
3. We must do the right things if you don’t want such the bad things come to you.
4. We must be fair as long as it’s in right way.
5. We cannot give up to get justice.
2.
This is interesting,
because as we read we will form an opinion and determine the real culprit. But
I doubt, at least in my case, that it is an objective assessment and not the
expression of sympathy for one or the other.
In a court, the accused
would be disadvantaged by his criminal record and previous crimes. On the other
hand, the other party had a motive and circumstances that make her a likely
suspect.
The hero, who is the
narrator at the same time, breaks into this big house, in order to steal. He
seems to tell us how it happened, but the fact that his enemy (the very devil,
as he calls her) proves to be so devious and intelligent in manipulating and
creating all the necessary evidence seems a bit difficult to believe.
Used with all kinds of
twists and plots in our detective films, I am inclined to give the benefit of
the doubt to the woman, as well as to the burglar who faces a stiff sentence in
jail.
The fact is I am not
sure if Conan Doyle gives us a definite answer. If you are sure he or she did
it, please let me know. For me, the jury is still out on the verdict, but I am
sure I loved the story and I have decided to read more of Arthur Conan Doyle’s
short stories.
