Mr. Wright ) she said no but when asked if he was home. She had said yes but that he was dead up stairs with a rope around his neck.

I believed that she did kill her husband in a way to escape his abuse mentally. In Mrs. Wright's time it wasn't a women's place to speak up or even against her husband. The wife was basically a puppet at her husband's disposal.

The next few minutes of conversation was between Mr. Henderson and Mrs. Hale. M
