Death of Mijbil the Otter

Since most of you are realising only now that the class 10th English book is actually goated, let me tell you something interesting.

Did you know that Mijbil the Otter was murdered by a construction worker with a pickaxe?

Also, the writer of that story is believed so have died because his partner had 'cursed' him.

This might have ruined the vibe of the chapter a bit for you but I found this interesting to point out since nobody (literally) has ever figured this out even though the information is easily available online.

There is information regarding photos Gavin Maxwell and Mijbil's thombstone (in graveyard) available online as well I think.

This points out to the fact that there are bacstories to multiple things around us in our lives that we don't even care enough to notice.
