Question

Mrs Slater's father was "merry" that morning. What do you think was the reason??

Answer 1

The grandfather was 'merry' that morning because he had made final decision to marry Mrs. John Shorrocks who was the owner of 'Ring-o' -Bells. She had given her consent to the wedding. The ceremony was to be solemnized on Monday, at Twelve o' clock at St. Philip's Church.
