The reply from Red Chief's father to the ransom demand is doubly ironic. First, it is ironic because the two kidnappers were expecting to be paid to release Johnny to his father and instead his father demanded payment of $250 to take the little hellcat back.
The greatest example of irony of situation is the failure of the ransom note to produce the intended results. Instead Ebenezer Dorset replies that he is willing to take his son back if the "two desperate men" will pay him two hundred and fifty dollars and bring the boy in the dark.
