As for Johnny Whitehead, despite what he had said, he remembered very well his last encounter with Mrs Blakiston. She had indeed come into the shop, making those accusations of hers. And the worst of it was that she had the evidence to back them up. How had she found it? What had put her on to him in the first place? Of course, she hadn’t told him that but she had made herself very clear. The bitch. He would never have said as much to his wife, of course, but he couldn’t be more pleased that Mary Blakiston was dead.
Again Mary seems to know everyone's dark secrets and he was lying..
