How does the author use characterization to create

satire?

He uses Framton's fearfulness, which is inappropriate

because the hunters are not ghosts.

He uses Mr. Sappleton's curiosity about Framton's

sudden departure to highlight Framton's rudeness.

He uses Mrs. Sappleton's perceptions of Framton to

ridicule her lack of understanding of his concerns.

He uses the niece's unexpected lies to highlight flaws

in her character and those around her.

Step-by-step explanation:
