उत्तर
Jills claim that they owned the steering wheel of the car, one of the tires, two of the cylinders, and the leg of the sofa. This implies that none of the things that are in their home and even their home did not belong to them. His salary is six pounds but he has to pay seven pounds and eightpence. The Equated monthly installments ate away all his salary.
Jack was borrowing the excess money from “ Thrift and providence Trust corporation”. The pathetic things that melt one’s heart are seen towards the end of the play.
