recommended that students prepare the answer on their own.
No,
the Bishop was not right in selling the salt-cellars. His own
economic condition was not good and he should have asked for
Persome’s opinion before he sold the cellars, which belonged to
her too.
From
another point of view the Bishop was right in selling the
salt-cellars as he wanted to give the money he got from selling the
cellars to Mere Gringoire who couldnot give rent to the landlord on
time and was about to face eviction. The Bishop was very broadminded
as he could empathise with the condition of Mere Gringoire and chosed
to do away with the salt cellars. The Bishop felt that one could eat
salt out of china as well.
