Detailed explanation-1: -Ans. No, Horace did not get the jewels from the Grange safe. But he broke open the safe for the wife of the owner of the house without gloves. But in reality, that lady was a burglar.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why did Horace believe that the it won’t be hard to open the safe? Horace believed so because he had worked with locks and safes throughout his life. In addition to that, the burglar alarm was poorly built.
Detailed explanation-3: -Why does he steal every year? Answer: Horace Danby stole every year to buy rare, expensive books. Each year he planned carefully just what he would do, stole enough to last for twelve months, and secretly bought the books he loved to collect through an agent.
Detailed explanation-4: -She framed up the story of forgetting the number to unlock the safe and promised Horace that she won’t call the Police if he would take out the jewels for her. Horace had reached Shotover Grange where he planned to execute his next robbery.
Detailed explanation-5: -Horace Danby is a thief completely. He steals only once in a year. He is fond of books and spends most of his money on buying books. Also, he plans accurately before attempting any burglary.
