The question is incomplete, here is the complete question.

Read the excerpt from "The Monkey's Paw."

But her husband was on his hands and knees groping wildly on the floor in search of the paw. If he could only find it before the thing outside got in. A perfect fusillade of knocks reverberated through the house, and he heard the scraping of a chair as his wife put it down in the passage against the door. He heard the creaking of the bolt as it came slowly back, and at the same moment he found the monkey's paw, and frantically breathed his third and last wish.

The knocking ceased suddenly, although the echoes of it were still in the house. He heard the chair drawn back, and the door opened. A cold wind rushed up the staircase, and a long loud wail of disappointment and misery from his wife gave him courage to run down to her side, and then to the gate beyond. The street lamp flickering opposite shone on a quiet and deserted road.

How does Mrs. White's reaction compare to that of Mr. White after the third wish has been granted?

Answer:

Mrs White was heartbroken and Mr White was relieved.

Mr and Mrs white has only one son called Hebert, he was involved in an accident in his workplace that claimed his life.

After Major Morris departure Mr White wished for two hundred pounds but nothing seemed to happen. It was the following day that the couple were informed about the death of their only son, they were both devastated. Mrs white then ordered her husband to wish her son back to life, Mr White made the second wish but series of strange things began to happen, suddenly a knock was heard on the door Mrs white rushed down to see if her son had returned back but Mr White was scared of what he had wished for so he searched for the paw and made the third wish and then the strange sounds ceased. Mrs white opened the door to see an empty street rather than her son, she was heartbroken while Mr White was relieved.
