A Little Drink, A Lot of Money

(T&G News Service): Poor Miss Darling...Yes, she is pretty, but she has two problems.  The first is the court appointed trustee of her trust fund, Ms. Woods, is stealing from Miss Darling and Miss Darling knows it.  She found out when she mistakenly received a copy of the expense activity on her trust fund.  It clearly showed that Ms. Woods was taking thousands of dollars of cash payments.

When she confronts Ms. Woods about this, Ms. Woods dismisses the charges and she reminds Miss Darling of her second problem.  From when she was a teenager, Miss Darling has had a drinking problem.  She has remained sober for more than a year, but she must prove that in a court hearing tomorrow in order to get control of her trust fund.   If she fails to proves to prove that she has her drinking problem under control, she will not get control of her trust fund for another three years.  By that time, Ms. Woods will have stolen all the funds in the trust and there will be nothing that Miss Darling will be able to do about it.

Ms. Woods has expected that Miss Darling might become a problem so she had a plan and a hidden handkerchief soaked in chloroform.  She offers Miss Darling a drink of water, but gets the chloroform instead.
