Hey mate

Here is ur answer

Mrs. Packletide's motive behind hunting a tiger was to outshine Loona Bimberton. She was happy to have killed the tiger but discovery of Miss Mebbin that the tiger died of heart failure, disturbed her.

Miss Mebbin blackmailed her for keeping her secret intact. Mrs. Packletide had no option other than paying for week-end cottage. The 'incidental expenses' were too heavy and hence, she gave up hunting.

The message conveyed by the story is that never get jealous of others opportunities and be happy in what you have.
