Warden chapter 4

It's interesting to me how unambiguously the bedesmen who favor Bold are painted as bad and wrong.  Do you think there's any hint of sarcasm here, or is this really what he's driving at? On the one hand, Harding and Bold are clearly "good guys," yet Handy is a slime, Skulpit a wimp, and Bunce honorable and loyal.

Warden chapter 5

Chapter 5 has explained to me perfectly the heretofore-mysterious phrase "woman's intuition:"

Nothing had been explained to her about Bold and the
hospital; but, with a woman's instinct she knew that things were going
wrong.

That is to say, not being stupid, in a woman, is preternatural insightfulness.  Who knew?  There's so much about being a man I have yet to learn!
