The doctor replied, ‘I ran and ran till I reached a friend's house. Immediately I smeared oil all over myself and took a bath. I changed into fresh clothes. The next morning at about eight-thirty I took my friend and one or two others to my room to move my things from there. But we found we had little to carry. Some thief had removed most of my things. The room had been cleaned out! But not really, the thief had left behind one thing as a final insult!’ ‘What was that?’ I asked. The doctor said, ‘My vest, the dirty one. The fellow had such a sense of cleanliness . . .! The rascal could have taken it and used it after washing it with soap and water.’

3. “But we found we had little to carry.” Why?
4. What was the final insult?
5. Pick out a word from the given passage that means ‘to spread oil or cream’
