Question

Mr. Gilman had said earlier that he had come 'from a sense of duty'.
What account does he mean in this regard?

Answer 1

Mr. Gilman told Twisden that he was following Captain Dancy's case. When he read in the newspaper about the number of notes and he realises that those number notes were given by him to his customer Mr. Ricardos, he decided to come along with Mr. Ricardos at the office of Twisden to tell the truth.
