Final answer:
In Henrik Ibsen's play, Nora obtained a large sum of money without her husband's knowledge from a man named Henry.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Henrik Ibsen's play, Nora reveals to Mrs. Linde that she obtained a large sum of money, two hundred and fifty pounds, without her husband's knowledge. Nora obtained the money by borrowing it from a man named Henry. The exact nature of what Henry gave to Sheldon is not explicitly stated in the passage, so we do not know if it was a brand new saxophone, a ticket to a jazz concert, Oscar Holden's album, or one hundred dollars.
