Mrs. Packletide is the speaker. Her paid companion Louisa Mebbin knew that Mrs. Packletide was unworthy of the honour she received for having ** a tiger. She feared that Mebbin would reveal the truth about the tiger’ ****. She had to please Mebbin who exploited the situation. The money spent on Mebbin is referred to as incidental expenses.
