It really was the butler who was poisoning Earl Cain. Er. Earl Cain Hargreaves, so no one misunderstands.
He tried sneaking hemlock into a pearl drink he gave to Miss Merry -- Earl Cain's younger sister. Earl Cain figured out the ruse when he tried to take a sip and Riff smashed the cup away from him. The bottle of poison was in his pocket; he'd also been stealing antivenom from my medical case, it seems.
At least he confessed and went off with as little trouble as possible. I don't know why Cain doesn't simply call the police, but I think perhaps he's too distressed at the moment.
...they've found a tenth body dead from the supposed vampire as well. This whole retreat seems to be unendingly grim.
