:22:00
Oh dear. I've never had anything
to do with the police.
:22:03
There's nothing to worry about.
They're really very nice.
:22:06
Thank you, Miss Marple.
:22:08
You've been Mrs Lansquenet's
companion for many years?
:22:11
Oh, yes, indeed.
:22:12
I know it must be a great shock,
but there are things we need to know.
:22:16
- Well, I'll do my best.
- I'm sure you will.
:22:20
When did you see her last?
:22:22
Just before I went to the library.
:22:24
What time was that?
:22:25
I caught the two o'clock bus.
:22:28
She's been dead about two hours,
it's now 4:30pm, so about 2:30pm.
:22:33
The coroner will be more exact.
:22:35
Isn't it extremely difficult to
determine the exact time of death?
:22:41
We'll do our best to be
as accurate as possible.
:22:45
Before you left her, did she seem
nervous or upset in any way?
:22:49
No, she was fine.
She was just getting ready to go out.
:22:52
Miss Milchrest, have you any idea
at all who may have killed her?
:22:58
Aside from your suspicions
of Miss Marple.
:23:01
Anyone else? Anyone who hated her?
:23:03
Oh no, she was kind to everyone.
She was very kind to me.
:23:08
She said she would leave me
her amethyst brooch
:23:10
and one of her own paintings
as a remembrance.
:23:14
She painted very well,
don't you think?
:23:19
Yes... yes, indeed.
:23:21
Miss Milchrest, did she have
any visitors lately?
:23:25
No, we lived very quietly.
:23:27
Didn't any relatives call on her
after her return to this country?
:23:32
Only her brother. Her late brother,
I mean. He called a month ago.
:23:36
He hardly ever left his home.
Was there a special reason?
:23:39
Well, yes. You see, they had been
estranged for a number of years.
:23:44
After her husband died, she needed
help financially. She wrote to him.
:23:48
- Were you present when he called?
- No.
:23:52
Did you, by any chance,
overhear anything they said?
:23:55
I'm not the sort of woman
who listens at keyholes!
:23:59
I'm sorry. I just wondered if you
might have happened to overhear.
