Long Answer
1. Sheriff Peters notes that the important information about the murder would be upstairs, not in the kitchen, where there is “[n]othing here but kitchen things” (Paragraph 60). He seems to disregard everything about the kitchen, including the ideas of the women whom he believes should remain in the kitchen. Mr. Henderson ignores the clues in front of him in the kitchen, such as the quilt and birdcage, because of his misguided notion that nothing important happens in a kitchen. (Various paragraphs)
