Two foreigner who married
Anything Elinor said was all right with Fred. I remembered his face at the inquest - shocked and puzzled.
'You know of no reason why your - why Mrs Hammond should take her own life?'
'None at all.'
'Nothing about her health caused her anxiety?'
'Nothing. She always seemed to be in perfect health.'

a nonsense suicide
'You found something belonging to Mrs Hammond, didn't you? In the waiting room?'
'Yes, I found her bag.'
The bag, it seemed, had been behind the radiator in front of the window.
'I thought it was a strange place for it, if she was going to - do what she did. I gave it to the police when they came.'
So Elinor, having put her hat on the table, had dropped her bag behind the radiator before she jumped. Somehow it didn't make sense to me.
