in order that he no longer need
borrow from his clients' funds.

My niece, Rosamund Shane, in order
that she may support her husband

:11:13
in the style to which
he would like to be accustomed.

:11:19
To my nephew, Hector Enderby,
in order that he may be able

:11:23
to afford to hunt every day
rather than once a week -

:11:27
thereby providing more opportunity
for breaking his neck.

:11:33
Finally, my sister,
Cora Lansquenet, out of gratitude

:11:38
that she stayed out of the country
for 30 years and didn't bother me.

:11:44
The money is to be given outright
to all parties concerned

:11:48
with the hope that it will make them
all as miserable as possible."

:11:53
That is the important part
as far as you're concerned, I'm sure.

:11:56
No, the important part is how much

:12:00
Really, George,
you shouldn't say things like that.

:12:04
Why not? I want to know.
:12:06

of your uncle's death.

:12:26
What do you mean, Aunt Cora?
:12:27
Well, it might make people wonder.
:12:31
Anyway, it's all been
hushed up very nicely, hasn't it?

:12:35
What are you talking about?
:12:37
Well, after what he said when
he came to see me last month,

:12:41
it can't do any good
making it public.

:12:44
It should be kept strictly
in the family.

:12:47
My dear Mrs Lansquenet, would you say
plainly what you mean by this?

:12:52
That he was murdered, wasn't he?
:12:55
What?!
:12:57
Really, Aunt Cora,
that's a very silly thing to say...
