CHAPTER 6 & 7

14. How does Mrs. Rogers meet her demise in chapter 6? She ends up dying in her sleep.

15. Why does Mr. Blore immediately suspect that Mrs. Rogers was killed by her husband, the butler? Explain Mr. Blore’s accusation, pointing out its strengths and shortcomings. I believe he explains his reasons by suggesting that Mr. Rogers had indeed killed someone in the past with his wife, so by murdering his own wife it some how "covered him up" in a way.

16. In part 3 of chapter 7, Mr. Lombard and Dr. Armstrong discuss the two deaths that have occurred thus far. Why do they conclude that both deaths must have been acts of murder? How does this conclusion relate to the absence of Mr. Owen? Because both of the deaths that have occurred over there time on the island have essentially fitted exactly to how the Ten Little Indian Boys poem goes. It relates to the absence of Mr. Owen because nobody knows where Mr. Owen is, and nobody knows who the murderer is.

Why do Mr. Lombard and Dr. Armstrong then agree to enlist Mr. Blore in their search mission? What and where do they plan to search? They agree to let Mr. Blore tag along in there search because he's a good man in a pinch, and they're going to need help in search of the bare island. They plan to search the island on hopes of figuring out the U. N. Owen situation.
