I tried to work this out with logic and method and arrived at a solution of Helen speaking about Cora in After The Funeral. Is that a Hastings or a Poirot answer?
I also thought of Peril At The End House first, but I see I would have been wrong. Couldn't have been. There isn't such meanness. It is from sad Cypress, Roddy speaking to Poirot about the deceased Mary Gerrard, the not very clever protege of the wealthy aunt.
Yes, Well Done! I thought I had already replied to this but it obviously didn't take.
I dont think she was unintelligent, maybe the lack of the chance to display any emotional depth, she and Roddy may have made a good match, once the social inequalities they were facing had been eliminated, if possible.
Thank you, let's see this one, an easy one I should think: "She was far more benignant than he had imagined and a good deal older. she seemed indeed very old."
My initial guess is that the speaker is referring to Miss Jane Marple, and that it's Giles doing the thinking, given that was meant to be her last case, and therefore she must have been old(er)!

Oh, let's have this quote:
"It's a long time since I've seen her... For many years now, it's been just a card at Christmas."
Good luck everyone!
