    What type of woman Mrs Jones was? What doubts did Mr Jones have about her?
    Ans : Mrs Jones, wife of Joe Thompson was childless and not a woman of saintly temper, nor much given to self-denial for others' good whereas Mr Joe Thompson had well-grounded doubts about the manner he would be greeted by his wife on reaching home with the crippled child. He had a fear that she would not get along with her and knew that she would not welcome Maggie and it proved to be true when he was confronted by her.
