Organ played by Charles Spinks
When Tom recovers from his astonishment at learning that his unknown employer is old Mr. Chuzzlewit, he tells him of Lewsome's story accusing Jonas of the murder of his father, Anthony Chuzzlewit. John Westlock and Martin go to Mrs. Gamp's in search of evidence supporting the accusation, and find her quarrelling bitterly with Betsey Prig.
Mrs. Gamp arranges to introduce old
Mr. Chuzzlewit, John Westlock, Mark Tapley, and Lewsome secretly to Jonas's house so that they may question old Chuffey, and if necessary tax Jonas with the crime. However, the old man explains that Anthony had discovered the poison and, realising that his son was trying to kill him, had died of a broken heart. Jonas's relief is short-lived, for a few moments later the police arrive to arrest him for the murder of Montague on information supplied by Mr. Nadgett. Before he can be taken away, however, he commits suicide.
