The young lady who portrays herself to be the mistress of the house is the actual culprit in the story. She is the one who takes all the jewels and is not caught for it.
Explanation:
I think that though it was unfair that Horace Danby got caught for stealing jewels which he didn’t actually steal, he eventually got what he deserved. He was a thief, after all. He stole what was not his, he stole other’s hard earned money for his own gains and hence, deserved what he got.
Explanation:
The actual value of the jewellery in the safe at Shotover Grange was about fifteen thousand pounds. However, Horace, expected a gain of about five thousand ponds after selling each piece one by one. He planned to use this money to buy the three very interesting books that were coming up for sale in the autumn.
