Review the paragraph that starts on the bottom

of page 3 and continues on page 4. Which
conclusion can be drawn from the underlined
sentence in the paragraph?
exposed ledge over the valley from which the
train had lifted him, and the wind combed it
with teeth of steel that he seemed actually to
hear scraping against the wooden sides of
the station. Other building there was none:
the village lay far down the road, and
thither-since the Weymore sleigh had not
come-Faxon saw himself under the
immediate necessity of plodding through
several feet of snow.
Faxon is angry that a sleigh has not come to meet
him.
Faxon regrets taking the job as a secretary.
Faxon has previously been introduced to Mrs. Culme.
He understood well enough what had
happened at Weymore: his hostess had
forgotten that he was coming. Young as
Faxon was this sad lucidity of soul had been
acquired as the result of long experience and
he knew that the visitors who can least afford
Faxon is accustomed to not having much money.

Answer:

The conclusion is that Mr Faxon was angry that his host had not sent a sleigh to come pick him from the train station

Step-by-step explanation:

George Faxon had just being employed to work as a Secretary in New England. He travelled from Boston in the United States to Northridge train station in New England and was waiting for his host's sleigh to come pick him up.

It was a bitterly cold night and the cold wind was biting hard as he waited on end for Mrs Culme's sleigh to come pick him up at the station.

But neither Mrs Culme or her sleigh showed up. Instead, a young slender lad by name Frank Rainer was the one who eventually came for Mr Faxon and took him to his uncle's house at Weymore where the plot of the play was hatched
