Ellen King's strong disapproval of a tramper who recently visited the shop sets the tone for this narrative. Her vivid description of the man as a "perfect pig" highlights her disdain for his presence in her respectable environment. The interaction hints at themes of class distinction and societal expectations, as Ellen expresses a desire for the police to control who frequents their community. The story unfolds through her reactions and the implications of her judgment on both the tramper and the social norms of the time.
