Elizabeth Jordan and Amelia Slater both are cunning and cumulative women's
When they saw their father was dead they tried to outsmart each other by wearing the morning dress. Amelia had an eye on the grandfather's bureau whereas Elizabeth being unaware of the bureau eyed on the gold watch of Abel Merryweather.

Answer 2

Abel's daughter.Looks after her father only for his possessions.Is more interested in what mourning dress she should wear to out-stage her sister than having genuine feelings for her father.Detests her sister and doesn't want her to gain anything for their father's will.Steals her father's belongings so that her sister can't have them after his supposed death.  
Mrs. jordan is a stout and complacent woman. she is impassive and and always has an irritating air around her. she is very witty and sharp. she holds the capacity to drive a hard bargain over things to gain possession. she is a too greedy person who takes every opportunity to criticise the slaters and finally decides to take.
