To kill King Duncan whilst he is sleeping late at night.
I think it still would have been held because Abigail was not the only one responsible for the Salem Witch Trial. In fact there were many other people to blame.

Answer:
A. It reveals that Mr. White's wish has been granted but not in the way they expected.
Explanation:
The story of "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs revolves around the mythical charm of the monkey's paw that seems to work on its owner. This paw from India came to the hands of the White family from a family friend of theirs and became the main source of their 'hope' and misfortune too.
In the given passage, we can know that Herbert died at work and as compensation for the accident, the White family were to be given 200 pounds. Now, this amount is the exact amount that the White family required to pay off their debt and had been what they wished for. But it did not come true the way they expected it to be. So, the dialogue in the passage develops the plot of the story by providing the means for the family to get their wish fulfilled but not the way they had expected it to be.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
