 Solution

If $A\subseteq C$, Brownian motion exits $\mathbb{H}\setminus C$ no later than it exits $\mathbb{H}\setminus A$. The Strong Markov property and the nonnegative harmonic function $h_A$ show that the expected exit height for $C$ is at least that for $A$. Taking the limits in the Brownian representation of half-plane capacity proves the monotonicity of half-plane capacity
