Answer choice A is the answer
In this play, the attorney is trying to find out what happened to Mr. Wright and how he died (apparently strangled, but suspected murdered). Mrs. Peters finds the bird, that was supposed to be in the bird cage, strangled. She interprets this as the preparation to the killing of Mr. Wright and hides the bird in a box. The fact that the ladies in the scene have agreed to not disclose the contents of the box and continue to hide it, let us know that the best answer here is option C.
Answer:
These lines reveal Silas as a quiter and unfaithful, careless and with a false pride.
Explanation:
The plot is supported as he is found asleep beside the stove, he comes back when he needs money for tobacco in the winter when Warren and Mary don't need the help, but when they do need help Silas leaves, so Warren is done, disappointed, frustrated, Silas is taking advantage of him, and Warren doesn't care if he's young or old-he didn't do his job and that's all that matters.
Mary doesn't want to hurt Silas' feelings, but Warren knows that Silas needs to learn a lesson, and Mary and Warren don't just have the extra money to give Silas.
