Question

what is done by Mrs .Slater not be seen by mr.mrs Jordan while stealing the bureau​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mrs Jordan took a lot of time to reach the home of the Slater’s because she wanted to get a complete new mourning dress before coming. Both the sisters are not grief-stricken at the death of their father but are trying to out shine each other in wearing their best mourning dresses. For the sisters grief is to be depicted through mourning- dress and not through the feelings in one’s heart.
