Mr. White acquired the talisman from his friend Sergeant Major Morris who had got it during his time in India. And he believed that the talisman brings harm more than luck, and threw into the fire. But Mr. White took it out and decided to keep it for himself. This shows that he somehow believed in the magical ability of the monkey's paw.

Their conversation about the <em>"two hundred pounds"</em> and their belief that it'll be granted shows their belief in the monkey's paw and its magical abilities.
