Episode 10
Produced by Wilfrid Grantham
at 3.30 Mr. Crawley, having resolved that it is his duty to resign his living immediately, has informed Dr. Tempest personally of his decision, and has communicated it to the Bishop by letter.
The Bishop, receiving the letter, has taken no action-and desires to take none. But Mrs. Proudie, acting over his head. has sent Mr. Thumble to Hogglestock to arrange to take over the parish duties as from the following Sunday.
Learning of this, after Mr. Thufnble's departure, the Bishop has been roused to great anger. He has declared to his wife that he will cancel her instructions and will brook no further interference from her.
Following this stormy scene, Mrs.
Proudie (who, unknown to anyone else, has lately been suffering from heart trouble) retires to her room to lie down. And when, in the evening, her maid goes to call her-Mr. Thumble having now returned from Hogglestock-she finds the mistress of the palace dead at her bedside.
