Dear Student,
Given below is the answer to your question.
a) Everyone in the house believed the words of Mrs Slater who said that when she went to wake her father after dinner, he was lying on the bed and was cold. Therefore, Mrs. Slater and the others believed that he was dead.
b) When they came to know that their father was dead, they were eager to take into possession the material belongings of their father.
c) The grandfather made their plans unsuccessful by announcing his marriage, his plans to alter the Will and to pay the premium of his insurance.
