We don’t get any information regarding the past history of the lady in red as we know about Horace’s past. Her whole personality remains wrapped in mystery until the end. Only when the identity of the real lady of the house is unfolded, we come to know that she is a thief. She is the real culprit. The lady in red comes there with the only purpose of committing a theft in the house like Horace. She cleverly decamps with the jewels while Horace is sent to prison.

The lady in red is gifted with a rare personality. She is full of confidence. She acts like a perfect actress presenting herself as the lady of the house. Her gestures, confidence and convincing power are enough to convince Horace. He turns out quite a novice in understanding and judging the lady in red and her motive. She dominates the proceeding. Horace only proves a puppet in her hands. She exploits his fear of going to prison. She makes him open the safe without his gloves. She convinced him that she needes those jewels to wear them to a party that night. Horace willingly hands over the jewels and she decamps with them. Only when the grey-haired, sharp-tongued woman appears as the real lady of the house, we come to know that the lady in red was a professional and crafty thief much smarter than Horace.

She was short, fat and some what hunched in stature. Her silvery white hair used to spread out on her wrinkled face. Her lips constantly moved inaudibly in prayers. He said that she looked extremely beautiful with the peacefulness, serenity and the the contentment her face exhibited.

 Madam,

 Subject: Insufficient copies of Question Bank of English

 With due regard, I wish to state that CBSE has recently supplied a book containing the question bank of English to the schools but they are not available in sufficient quantity in the school library. My sister Nita, who is studying in class X in your school, has not been able to get the book so far. Since this book contains the questions patterned on the revised guidelines and the examination format, it is indispensable for the students. I request you to kindly arrange some more books for the library to meet the demands of the students.

 I sincerely hope you will look into the matter.

Thanking you

Yours faithfully

Solids can very easily be distinguished from liquids by their definite shape, considerable mechanical strength, and rigidity. There are many different types of solids. Some are soft and others are hard. Some are rigid and others are flexible. The atoms and molecules of solids are held together by pulling forces called bonds. 

The atoms in solids are held together by interatomic forces. The average location of the atoms in a lattice does not change with time. Since the atoms are almost lacking in mobility, their kinetic energy is negligibly small. It is this lack of mobility which makes a solid rigid.
