Critical Analysis

      This chapter is not of a great importance. It deals with only one incident of Harry Maylie and Dr. Losberne’s departure from the country.

      Harry seems unhappy when he leaves for London because he does not bade good-bye to either Mrs. Maylie or Rose but his care for the ladies comes out when he tells Oliver to promise him to write regularly letters to him and inform him about Rose and Mrs. Maylie.
