Question: Why exactly didn't Ramsley want Master Gracey to marry Elizabeth? What would've happened to him, the mansion, or Gracey himself if he married her?
Answer: She was African American, most likely the daughter of slaves. He felt she would have brought shame and disgrace to the mansion and the family name.
Question: If all of the spirits in the mansion are now free to move on to Heaven, why didn't Madame Leota and the singing busts join them?
Answer: Madame Leote's spirit was encased in the crystal. The singing busts were inanimate objects brought to life.
Chosen answer: Considering Ramsley's intelligence, he would have been able to make "couterfeit" handwriting.
