The best part of the postmaster’s character emerges when he opens the envelope. He decides to send some money to the letter writer so that his faith in God is maintained. He asks for money from his employees, he himself gives a part of his salary, and several of his friends join him in the ‘act of charity’. He puts the whole money in an envelope addressed to Lencho and with it a letter containing only a single letter as signature-God. This shows that the postmaster loves to perform good deeds and finds contentment from it. Thus, he is an amiable and large hearted fellow.
