proprietress

I shall have to see the proprietress of the place, too.

You have had the services of the inn's former proprietress.

"And told the proprietress about the body in the gym."

Neither one said a word until the proprietress had moved on to other customers.

There was one male customer inside, talking with the proprietress.

The proprietress had almost finished her sums, as she called them.

She was also the sole proprietress of the school from 1870 to her retirement in 1896.

The proprietress of the hotel tiptoed out and left me alone.

Now, with the proprietress and dancers locked up, the ball cannot go forward.

"You could buy them from the proprietress for a very few francs," he wrote.

The proprietress wanted us to see two local treasures.

"Her husband is the most popular suspect," confided the proprietress.

"And those we offer," stated the proprietress with a tight smile.

But I noticed that at times the fat proprietress went to their rooms; to play cards, she said.

"It is not an imposition," the proprietress said, with another smile.

The kind proprietress gave me a couple of acetaminophen tablets.

After dinner, conversation dwindled, and the old proprietress bid them good night.

Giggling and almost tripping up, he left the room on the arm of the proprietress.

"Madame," as the proprietress was respectfully known, listened to me with close attention.

He watched her leave the shop with her aunt, then turned to the proprietress.

His father would never let him turn down the honor of bedding the child of the proprietress.

She was now the proprietress of the Rose Bowl.

"These are guests," said the proprietress, reasonably, but with a hint of teeth.

He heard the front door close, and the footsteps of the proprietress approaching the room in which he sat.

The story ends when the proprietress comes and takes back the chicken, after hearing its clucking.
