Mrs Dorling was a greedy woman who did not return the belongings to the narrator. She herself had offered to take Mrs S's things to her home to take care of them as long as they would be away. Mrs S had  entrusted the task of taking care of her things before leaving to save their life from Nazi soldiers. After the war when the narrator returned, and went to her house to take her mother's things back, she did not welcome her with a smile. She kept her standing at the door, and asked her to come some other day. Her selfish, inconsiderate and avaricious behavior hurt the already hurt narrator. Her intentions of misappropriating the author's mother's goods were quite clear.

Mrs S was a great Jew woman who became victim of war. She had been living peacefully in Holland with her daughter, the author when they had to leave in hurry to save their life. Mrs S was a perfect homemaker. She had an admirable collection of household things such as crockery, cutlery, and upholstery. She took meticulous care of them, and often cleaned them. Mrs S had given her precious and expensive household things to Mrs Dorling with the intention of taking them back after the war was over. The unfortunate Mrs S didn't live long enough to go back to Holland, and claim her things back from Mrs Dorling.
