    The first instance of humor within the story occurs when an unsuspecting cat gets its head caught in an upturned jug‚ and struggled to free itself. As a result the residents of the block mistake the hysterical cat for a thief‚ and later‚ a spirit. Here Narayan uses dramatic irony as the reader is aware of the fact that the ‘devilish creature’ haunting the store is‚ in fact‚ a cat‚ while the characters do not. Thus‚ one views the resident’s reactions as naïve and comically exaggerated. Furthermore
