State one likely reason the writer of The Midnight Visitor chose to characterise Ausable as short and fat.

 

Answer:

The reason that the writer of ‘The midnight visitor’ chose to characterise Ausable as short and fat as he wanted to depict that a good physique is not necessary to be smart and irrespective of his appearance Ausable was able to use his wits and mental ability to handle any grave situation.

Through this character, the writer wanted to give a strong message that the brain is what counts more than brawn/muscle power.
