The correct answer is:  

The second excerpt, because it appears to contain a prejudice that may have affected the writer's beliefs about mrs. hossack.

In 1900, John Hossack, an Iowa farmer, was murdered in his bed. At his funeral, Margaret Murchison Hossack, his wife for 32 years, was arrested and charged with killing her husband.

The rural community´s division on the matter had some people sustaining biased arguments such as the one from Glaspell's article while others supported Margaret Hossack innocense under the light of domestic troubles and abuse depicted by prosecutors as a motive for the crime.
