it's not, to my mind, the killing of him that is her chief crime, but in trying to get the unfortunate and ill-used Miss Lowenthal hanged for her crime.

If her husband had been a bit more continent he would not be... wherever he is at the moment.

She was only interested in one thing: money!

**SCENE 52**
- "It will not seem monstrous when justice has weighed in the balance the facts which we can prove. Let me tell you a few of these, the result of careful investigation. 
   1. There is the fact that you knew of Mr. Culledon's entanglement with Miss Elizabeth Löwenthal, and did your best to keep it from old Mrs. Steinberg's knowledge, realising that any scandal round her favourite nephew would result in the old lady cutting him–and therefore you–out of her will. 
  2. You dismissed a parlour-maid for the sole reason that she had been present when Miss Löwenthal was shown into Mr. Culledon's study. 
  3. There is the fact that Mrs. Steinberg had so worded her will that, in the event of her nephew dying before her, her fortune would devolve on you; the fact that, with Miss Löwenthal's action for breach of promise against your husband, your last hope of keeping the scandal from the old lady's ears had effectually vanished.
