Miss
Mebbin was a very selfish, mean, and unethical lady. She was a real Mammon
worshiper. It appears as if money was the sole purpose of her existence. She
always adopted a protective elder-sister attitude towards money. In her
presence, she would not allow any money be wasted in tips to waiters. She
showed mean professional ethics, when she blackmailed Mrs Packletide. No doubt
she succeeded in extorting 680 pounds, but she must have earned a bad
reputation among her clients.

Miss Mebbin, the paid companion of Mrs. Packletide, had a protective elder sisterly attitude towards money. She was a great lover of money. Many a times she had saved roubles centimes and francs by not tipping. She had asked Mrs. Packletide also to pay less to the villagers as the tiger was quite old and if he didn't touch the goat, she need not pay for the goat as well.
