Mrs. mallard has some kind of heart condition, thus there was great care telling her that her husband died. Josephine (her sister) told her this news by dropping hints and not blatantly telling her. Her husband"s friend richards was over when josephine told mrs. mallard the news of her husband"s death, since richards noticed brently"s name in the killed listing of a railroad disaster while he was in the newspaper office. She sat in a comfy roomy armchair that stood across from the open window and pressed down into it with physical exhaustion.
