hey there,
1] Abel Merry weather recognizes his bureau and wants to know the reason for its shifting. Mrs Slater had already told her sister that the bureau belonged to them. This lie is enough to set tongues wagging and tempers escalating. Mrs Jordan accuses her sister of stealing her father’s things, thinking him to be dead. That is when Abel discovers that they had gathered there for the official mourning of his death.
2] It is because both daughters of Abel Merryweather cheated him when driving the things among them.
Apart from that, he also said that he will bring the property with the daughter whom he actually lives daughters told live with me but be said like that.
3] Mrs Slater's reactions after she comes to know about her father's assumed death are quite shocking. Only a heartless, self-righteous woman would behave the way she did. She was not sad at all at her loss. There were no tears in her eyes. She was far from real mourning. She was behaving as if her pet had died, not her father. She was concerned about appearances only. For example she asked Victoria to put on a white frock with black sash. She was so much worried about securing as many things belonging to her father as she could lay her hands on before her sister's arrival. She was least worried about calling a doctor to save her dying father.
4] Mrs. Amelia Slater is very edgy and nervous. Actually, she wants to steal grandfather’s bureau as she likes it very much but she wants to shift it to her room before the Jordans come and for that she has to do it quickly. She doesn’t want the Jordans to know about her theft.
5] Mrs. Slater grabbed the bureau of her grandfather when she thought that she was dead and her sister Elizabeth who was better than her in bargaining had not arrived yet.
