She was the only one who had been in the room that day, it was said by the charwoman who was first suspected. |
I met a Battersea charwoman yesterday who was almost in tears because she lived on the wrong side of the street and couldn't vote for Saklatvala. |
But there was nobody at Kig and Kadgits except the charwoman wiping over the lino in the passage. |
After that, the charwoman came to the back door, collected the grounds, as she did every morning, and took them to her daughter, Mary, to boil for a third time, so that Mary's seven children could have a hot drink. |
The old gentleman was away all day and the charwoman was cleaning the room. |
You'll see it at its worst, for Bryce decamped abroad last Monday without even arranging for a charwoman to clear up after him. |
