Lioness of Upper Brook Street Widow Crosier Dies Lone and Eccentric
In Upper Brook Street London Miss Crosier dies at over eighty after a life of eccentricities and isolation. A loyal servant Lutergaub tended her daily and guarded her privacy while a surprising hoard of silver plate and cash was found hidden in the attic. The will leaves property to a married niece at St Helene and several locals recall acts of charity in times of need.
