The Manciple didnt have any formal education, but was a very smart man and very good at business. He couldn't read or right but was still a very intellegent guy.
I think the narrator is in an awe about the Manciple. I think he feels that is kind of ironic that he has no education, and cant read nor write, but yet is such a smart man. He is very good with doing business. The narrator says that in any legal case he could outdo anyone else.
I like the Manciple. He may not have been in a position where he could have been educated but he didnt use that as an excuse not make something of himself, nor did he use it as an excuse to be lazy.
