1.	what was the ‘rummy case’ referred to by teddy Henry when he talked to Fireside at the little beer-shop of Aping Hanger?
Answer» Fireside was quite perplexed regarding the strange guest of the Halls. He met teddy Henry at the little beer-shop of Aping Hanger Late in the afternoon of the day when his when his dog had bitten the stranger. He told Henry that the man whom his dog had bitten was black. At least his legs seemed so because he saw nothing but blackness through the trouserpiece and glove torn by his dog. He expected to see a sort of pink skin to show but there was nothing except blackness which was as black as his hat. At this Henry remarked that it was altogether a ‘rummy case’ because his nose after all was pink as paint. Fearenside speculated that the man must be a piebald with black and white patches like a half-bred horse. Perhaps the two colors, instead of mixing evenly, had come off patchy. Such a thing had never been heard of before and was thus termed as a ‘rummy case’.
